TWO BLACK AUTHORS DECLARE WAR AGAINST ILLITERACY WITH NEW EDUCATIONAL MODEL


Dallas, TX -- Reading is a fundamental element of learning, but not everybody has that skill. Two authors with experience in education want to change that and have released a new book to help make that happen. The book was inspired by personal experience.

A heartfelt letter kicks off Why Sammy Still Can't Read: A Service Delivery Model for Creating a Culture of Reading. The letter is written by author Leroy McClure to his brother, Sam, who eventually discovered he had dyslexia and it serves as both an apology and a promise.

"Because I now know about different learning styles and learning disabilities, I promise I'll help students like you receive the proper diagnosis early and create a successful academic intervention plan to help ensure that they'll learn to read, write, compute math, and be better prepared to enter college or the workforce," he writes.
