<p>This timely book tackles underlying issues that see disproportionate numbers of African American males with dyslexia undiagnosed, untreated, and falling behind their peers in terms of literacy achievement. Considering factors including dialectic linguistic difference, limited phonological awareness, and the intersectionality of gender, language, and race, the studies included in this volume illustrate how classroom practices at preschool and elementary levels are failing to support students at risk of reading and writing difficulties. The book shows that it is possible to provide every girl and boy, and particularly African American boys with effective support and appropriate interventions enabling them to read at a level that is conducive to ongoing academic performance and success. This, argue the authors of this volume, is vital to the social, emotional, moral, and intellectual development of our society. 
This edited volume was originally published as a special issue of <em>Reading &amp; Writing Quarterly: Overcoming Learning Difficulties</em>. It will be of great interest to graduate and postgraduate students, researchers, and academics in the field of African American Education, Educational Equity, Race studies, Multiple learning difficulties and Literacy development.
