“We can, whenever and wherever we choose, successfully teach almost all children to read. We already have reams of research, hundreds of successful programs, and thousands of effective schools to show us the way. Whether or not we do it must finally depend on how we feel about the fact that we haven’t so far.”
(McEwan, 1998)
