Funny, I don't remember it being difficult to learn to read. Start with phonics; have kids take turn reading the chapter being studied aloud; break into reading groups; assign book reports on library books. My observation is that most students topped out at the level of basic reading comprehension. Sad to hear elementary schools are no longer serving their most important function: teaching kids to read.

as to the 'why' of the topic, this has definite bearing:

'If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.'
~ Thomas Jefferson
