Zachary T. Barnes, PhD, is Associate Professor of Literacy in the College of Education at Austin Peay State University in Clarksville, Tennessee, where he directs the Center for Literacy. His research focuses on how socioeconomic status and executive skills affect children's reading development. Dr. Barnes is a former special education teacher.Kelly B. Cartwright, PhD, is the Spangler Distinguished Professor of Early Child Literacy at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, where she directs the Reading, Executive Function, and Development Lab (READ Lab) and serves as Co-Coordinator for the PhD concentration in Literacy Research, Policy, and Practice and on the Executive Board for the Mebane Early Literacy Center. Her research focuses on the development of skilled reading comprehension and the neurocognitive and affective factors that underlie comprehension processes and difficulties from preschool through adulthood. Dr. Cartwright regularly works with teachers in schools throughout the United States to better understand and improve comprehension instruction for striving readers, and these experiences inform her research.

“Barnes and Cartwright have produced the ultimate guide to understanding and improving young children's self-regulation. Translating science to practice, this book offers clear explanations and practical suggestions for working with all children in the classroom. The authors' individual expertise in special education and neuroscience, respectively, complement each other perfectly. This book will surely be a standard reference for early childhood educators everywhere. I expect it will be a favorite of my students for years to come.â€--Stuart Marcovitch, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of North Carolina at Greensboro“This book provides an excellent overview of self-regulation, ES, and how they support children’s learning and development. The authors do an outstanding job of translating the research into accessible, practical strategies to promote the growth of ES in early childhood education settings. A great resource for teachers and early childhood specialists.â€--Sammy Ahmed, PhD, Department of Human Development and Family Science, University of Rhode Island“This much-needed book fills a gap in early education resources. The authors have created a resource that is not only easy to read but is also well researched and up to date. I love the vignettes, which skillfully show how early educators can apply the ideas in their classrooms to support children. The tables are loaded with well-organized information that educators can turn to time and again. There is so much to recommend about this book.â€--Nancy Garon, PhD, Department of Psychology, Mount Allison University, New Brunswick, Canada-
