Reading
Reading in the Brain
Stanislas Dehaene

Proust and the Squid:
The Story and Science
of the Reading Brain

Assessment
Essentials of Cross-Battery Assessment

Executive Functioning 

The New Executive Brain:

The Last Normal Child: Essays on the Intersection

The next two books are for anyone who is starting internship in the fall.  I might save these until fall 2014 when I start internship, but they may be helpful for practicum as well.
