“ Reading Above the Fray speaks to something near and dear to my heart—the power of early literacy to lead to lifelong learning and immeasurable opportunities. With clarity and precision, Dr. Lindsey cuts through the distracting noise around reading instructioxn. Her book should be required reading in preservice and inservice programs. With it, we can chart a course forward to literacy for all. ” — SHARIF EL-MEKKI, Chief Executive Officer, Center for Black Educator Development “ One of the best books I’ve read on decoding and phonics. With passion for teaching, Dr. Lindsey interprets reading science in ways that are directly transferable to the classroom. Her book is chock full of techniques, activities, and strategies—a veritable ‘go-to’ resource. This is exactly the kind of translational work the field needs! ” —HEIDI ANNE MESMER, Professor of Literacy Education, Virginia Tech “ In Reading Above the Fray , Julia masterfully connects the deep research base on how kids learn to read to what teachers can do tomorrow in their classrooms. What I love even more about the book is her focus on the joy of helping students develop the tools they need to achieve reading success. ” —SUSANNE NOBLES, Chief Academic Officer, ReadWorks Julia Lindsey’s evidence-backed routines help young readers decode words efficiently so they can spend more energy on comprehending—and enjoying— what they read! You’ll find: • need-to-know essentials of how kids learn to read. • principles of high-quality foundational skills instruction. • teacher-approved instructional “swaps” to improve practice tomorrow. Lindsey addresses content learning, culturally responsive instruction, and the importance of engaging readers.

On October 9, 2012, a Taliban member shot Malala and two of her friends on their way to school. Malala survived but fell into a coma. She woke up 10 days later in a hospital in England.

She was a folk hero who inspired the Afghani people to fight for freedom. Joya said, “It is better to live like a lion for one day than like a slave for 100 years.” Malala always loved learning.
