Hiebert, Elfrieda H.
Reading Teacher, v52 n6 p552-66 Mar 1999
Evaluates several types of text used for beginning reading instruction (texts based on high-frequency and phonetically regular words, as well as the trade books of current literature-based reading programs) by examining the tasks each poses for young readers. Examines for each particular type of text what a beginning reader needs to know about written English to be successful with it. (SR)
