Hi listeners, it's Susan here. Just in time for the school year, I have a brand new resource to tell you about.

Science of Reading, a new teacher's guide. This free e-book gives you the critical information you need,

It's packed with beautiful diagrams,

a perfect compliment to the podcast if I do say so myself.
