Reading to Preschoolers Exposed: Is the Emperor Really Naked?
Lonigan, Christopher J.
Developmental Review, v14 n3 p303-23 Sep 1994
Argues there is reason for more optimism concerning the effects of reading to preschoolers than suggested by the Scarborough and Dobrich review in this issue (PS522390). Discusses methodological problems in many studies; cites studies indicating direct and indirect links between reading to preschoolers and reading achievement, suggesting that small effects may have larger long-term consequences.
