This completely revised edition containing original illustrations is intended for pupils who are learning to read as well as for those students who are currently handicapped by their poor reading and spelling. Prerequisites include knowing the consonants and their sounds (but not necessarily blends, digraphs or diphthongs). A forthcoming accompanying teacher's guide will include answers to all of the exercises as well as important resource materials. The illustrations were drawn by an award-winning artist. The textbooks consists of two volumes.
