Dominic Wyse has the right idea about teaching reading. Start with very young children, well before school, well before they have to learn to read. If someone they love reads to them frequently, they associate it with warmth, love, acceptance and enjoyment of a good story, long before the letters mean anything(22 April, p 42).
