Climbing The Ladder
of Reading & Writing:
Meeting the Needs of ALL Learners 

Climbing the Ladder of Reading & Writing, co-edited by Nancy Young Ed.D., and Jan Hasbrouck, Ph.D., effectively addresses the differentiated needs of students, offering educators an indispensable and user-friendly reference. Concise yet powerful, this guide provides teachers with proven supports for students’ varying needs as they acquire literacy skills—improving outcomes for all students, including those with dyslexia and other exceptional needs and considerations. G. Reid Lyon calls the book “a masterpiece linking the science undergirding reading and writing development with the science of instruction.” 

Young and Hasbrouck recruited 29 noted subject-area experts to contribute sections related to their own specific domains of expertise, including Kymyona Burk, Ed.D., Nathan H. Clemens, Ph.D., NCSP, LSSP, Margie Gillis, Ed.D., and Sharon Vaughn, Ph.D. Maryanne Wolf, director of the UCLA Center for Dyslexia, Diverse Learners, and Social Justice provides the foreword.
