In this engaging episode of Reading with Your Kids, host Jed Doherty welcomes back beloved guests Nita Clark and her daughter Kathy Doherty to discuss their latest certified great read, "Danny's Reading Problem and the Fun He Had Fixing It."  Nita shares the personal inspiration behind the book, drawing from her own experiences helping her son overcome reading challenges in the 1960s. She emphasizes the importance of a balanced approach, combining phonics and visual recognition, to make reading more accessible for all children. Kathy, the illustrator, provides a unique perspective on the collaborative process and how Nita's passion for learning has influenced multiple generations of their family. The conversation then shifts to an innovative reading program called Flashcard Read, created by guest Kim Parra. Kim, who has personal experience with dyslexia and ADHD, explains how the strategic use of flashcards can help rewire the brain and improve reading, spelling, and even handwriting for neurodiverse learners. She shares inspiring success stories and offers coaching services to support families. Rounding out the episode, author Steven G. Bowling joins Jed to discuss his rhyming picture books and the power of rhythm and cadence in captivating young readers. Steven shares the backstory behind his Christmas-themed book and his plans for future projects. Throughout the conversation, the guests emphasize the importance of individualized learning, the joy of creating new worlds for children, and the transformative impact of reading.
