Brain Science Podcast #29 is an interview with Dr. Maryanne Wolf, whose book, Proust and the Squid, was discussed in episode 24. In this follow-up interview we talk about what happens in the brain when children learn to read. Dr. Wolf shares her experience with developing programs to help children read. She has some very practical advice for parents and she emphasizes that even children with severe dsylexia can learn to read with the proper instruction.
