Keith,
I don't get anything from this URL but can still find it at my original
link with the International Reading Association which I have reposted below
(copy and paste it). Or if you just go to the IRA website and click on the
link for Reading Research Quarterly, the abstract is there
In looking at the URL that I sent I'm seeing that for some reason the link
