Description:
Trade paperback. A guide to reading in the content area. Specific suggestions for every subject in school. Aimed at the secondary school level, this book operates on the idea that every teacher is a reading teacher. Back in the late 1990s, there was a push in this direction as if it was some new idea, but, like everything else in education, it was just an idea whose time had come again. Be forewarned, the educational establishment will rediscover this idea again in about five to ten years. Get this book and be ahead of the curve.Cover shows wear, mainly in rubbing off of the color and a few corner dings. Binding and pages are in great shape. No notes or highlighting.

Description:
A book from before the Civil War. Reading textbook, in both prose and poetry. Leather covers, scraped and worn. The leather has worn off at the corners, allowing the boards to peek through. The covers are held on by the stitching, as the leather is no longer connected to that of the spine. Some of the leather has been lost at the top of the spine (about 4-5 mm). Pages are stained and spotted, but remain solidly attached to their stitches. Some writing onthe front free endpaper and the lower corner has been torn off the rear free endpaper. A rare book.

Description:
This is a reprint of a set of reading books from the 19th Century. Includes the Primer and levels one through six. The slip cover has suffered wear on the lower panel, at most of the corners, and along a couple of seams. The books show almost no wear and probably could have been called "Near Fine". Covers are paper with leather or fake leather over the spines. Although these are "newer" they are still over 50 years old (some have SBNs on them instead of ISBNs, which dates them to the early 1970s). (If you wish to view some closer to the original versions, ST08786 is a fifth reader from 1844 and ST08220 is a sixth reader from 1867.) This set will ship at over five pounds. Therefore, it is not available for the Assendia international program. For domestic shipping, all excess shipping costs are included in the list price.
