On the occasion of the 15th anniversary of Reading Recovery

in North America, this booklet reviews the history of Reading Recovery's

"extensive growth, compelling research, and unprecedented success." The

booklet tells a story of individuals whose vision, dedication, and untiring

efforts have changed school systems and early literacy instruction,

demonstrating that literacy for all children is possible. At the same time,

the booklet tells a story of successful partnerships forged across

international boundaries (New Zealand Australia-United Kingdom-Canada-United

States) and academic settings (universities and public schools) by

collaborating participants, including researchers and practitioners; trainers

and students; teachers, children, and parents; educators and legislators;

school-based professionals; and partners. The illustrated history in the

booklet begins with Marie Clay in pre-1984 New Zealand and her ideas about

Reading Recovery and concludes with plans for future research in North

America. (NKA)
