1: Help for Content Area Teachers
If you worry that your students "just aren't getting the text," here is help for you.
This book is an easy guide for content area teachers to use to help when teaching their subjects. Strategies for before, during and after reading are given.
There are ideas to help you find other sources of information to supplement the text and give students more choices in their learning.
This is an excellent book for all teachers.

2: Overall good resource to help student read
I was assigned this book while obtaining my teaching certificate in college. It has useful strategies for helping student learn to read different types of books but the authors assume the teachers have extra time in class to teach these tactics. Unfortunately, most high school teachers are hampered by the amount of information to teach in their subject areas that it is difficult to implement the book's suggestions. Teachers can help those students during tutoring which makes the book useful.

3: A review from a person who HATES to read
This book is a must for anyone who thinks reading is for language arts. I hate to read 99.999998% of books. This book hits every area that causes me to hate reading. It's a must read for teachers and those that hate reading. It gives referances of what some might like as to what people like me need to think about in choosing a book. (btw I am a student teacher of math)

4: What a helpful book!
This book is very readable and user-friendly. Daniels offers up a treasure trove of helpful ideas for teachers; especially beginners or those with classrooms filled with students who don't like to read.
I recommend this book highly for all secondary level teachers.

5: Great read for teachers concerned with literacy
From the first chapter on I really enjoyed reading this book. The fact the authors are both educators allow them to include numerous anecdotes from their time spent inside and outside the classroom. Even though I am an English teacher I appreciated how this book covered all subjects.
