And just like that, Globodyne Corporation--the big media institution where the affluent suburbanite and the company's Vice President, Dick Harper, works--collapses in a grand scandal, Enron-style. To make matters worse, in the worst possible time, Dick's stressed-out travel agent wife, Jane, decides to quit her job--and if this isn't enough--their savings are gone, and nothing can stop Dick and Jane's downward spiral. Now, after a series of failed attempts to keep a job, the desperate and impoverished couple has only one method to stay afloat: to summon up the nerve and steal their way out of misery. However, are Dick and Jane cut out for a life of crime?

Dick and Jane are the two main char­ac­ters cre­ated by Zerna Sharp for a se­ries of basal read­ers writ­ten by William S. Gray to teach chil­dren to read. The char­ac­ters first ap­peared in the El­son-Gray Readers in 1930 and con­tin­ued in a sub­se­quent se­ries of books through the final ver­sion in 1965. These read­ers were used in class­rooms in the United States and in other Eng­lish-speak­ing coun­tries for nearly four decades, reach­ing the height of their pop­u­lar­ity in the 1950s, when 80 per­cent of first-grade stu­dents in the United States used them. Al­though the Dick and Jane se­ries of primers con­tin­ued to be sold until 1973 and re­mained in use in some class­rooms through­out the 1970s, they were re­placed with other read­ing texts by the 1980s and grad­u­ally dis­ap­peared from school cur­ric­ula. The Dick and Jane se­ries were known for their sim­ple nar­ra­tive text and wa­ter­color il­lus­tra­tions. De­spite the crit­i­cisms of the stereo­typ­i­cal con­tent that de­picted white, mid­dle-class Amer­i­cans and the whole-word ( look-say ) method of teach­ing read­ing on which these read­ers are based, the char­ac­ters of "Dick," "Jane," and their younger sis­ter, "Sally," be­came house­hold words. The Dick and Jane primers have also be­come icons of mid-cen­tury Amer­i­can cul­ture and col­lec­tors' items.

The pre­de­ces­sors to the Dick and Jane primers were the phon­ics -based McGuf­fey Read­ers , which were pop­u­lar from the mid-nine­teenth to the mid-twen­ti­eth cen­tury, and the Elson Basic Readers . William Scott Gray (1885–1960), di­rec­tor of the Cur­ricu­lum Foun­da­tion Se­ries at  Scott, Fores­man and Com­pany and dean of the Uni­ver­sity of Chicago 's col­lege of ed­u­ca­tion, co-au­thored with William H. Elson the Elson Basic Readers (re­named the El­son-Gray Basic Readers in 1936), which Scott Fores­man pub­lished in Chicago , Illi­nois . [1] [2] [3] Gray's re­search fo­cused on meth­ods to im­prove read­ing in­struc­tion using con­tent that would be of in­ter­est chil­dren and de­velop their word-recog­ni­tion skills. [4] Gray's vi­sion was to tie "sub­ject area" books in health, sci­ence, so­cial stud­ies, and arith­metic (each dis­ci­pline hav­ing its own se­ries of graded texts also pub­lished by Scott Fores­man) with the vo­cab­u­lary mas­tered in the basic read­ers, thus vastly im­prov­ing read­abil­ity in these same areas. [ citation needed ]

Zerna Sharp , a for­mer teacher, came up with the idea for what be­came the Dick and Jane read­ers for el­e­men­tary school chil­dren while work­ing as a read­ing con­sul­tant and text­book ed­i­tor for Scott Foresman. [1] [2] She worked with Gray to de­velop the read­ers after not­ing the re­duced read­ing abil­ity of chil­dren and urged the use of a new read­ing for­mat for primers . In ad­di­tion, Sharp de­vel­oped the main char­ac­ters of "Dick" and "Jane," the older brother and sis­ter in a fic­tional fam­ily that in­cluded "Mother," "Fa­ther," and a younger sis­ter named "Sally," their pets, "Spot" (orig­i­nally a cat in the 1930s, but a dog in later edi­tions), and "Puff," their cat; and a toy teddy bear named "Tim." [5] [6] [7] Sharp named the char­ac­ters, se­lected and edited the sto­ry­lines from ideas that oth­ers sub­mit­ted, and su­per­vised pro­duc­tion of the books. Gray and oth­ers wrote the Dick and Jane sto­ries; il­lus­tra­tor Eleanor B. Camp­bell did most of the early illustrations. [5] [7]

"Dick" and "Jane" orig­i­nally ap­peared in El­son-Gray Readers in 1930. [1] [2] Be­fore the ap­pear­ance of the first Dick and Jane sto­ries, read­ing primers "gen­er­ally in­cluded Bible sto­ries or fairy tales with com­pli­cated lan­guage and few pictures." [5] After the El­son-Gray se­ries ended in 1940, the char­ac­ters con­tin­ued in a sub­se­quent se­ries of pri­mary read­ers that were later re­vised and en­larged into newer editions. [4] [7] The Dick and Jane read­ers were widely used in class­rooms in the United States and in other Eng­lish-speak­ing coun­tries for nearly four decades and reached the height of their pop­u­lar­ity in the 1950s, when 80 per­cent of first-grade stu­dents in the United States were learn­ing to read though these stories. [2] [5] [8] The 1965 edi­tion, the last of the Dick and Jane se­ries, in­tro­duced the first African Amer­i­can fam­ily as char­ac­ters in a first-grade reader. [7] Al­though the Dick and Jane se­ries of primers con­tin­ued to be sold until 1973 they re­mained in use in some class­rooms through­out the 1970s. By the 1980s, how­ever, the Dick and Jane sto­ries had been re­placed with other read­ing texts and grad­u­ally dis­ap­peared from schools curriculum. [2] [5] [8]

William Gray and Zerna Sharp worked to­gether to de­velop read­ers that in­cor­po­rated the whole-word or look-say method of word recog­ni­tion (also called sight reading). [5] The Dick and Jane primers in­tro­duced new read­ers to one new word on each page and only five new words in each in­di­vid­ual story. [1] [2] Gray and Sharp also wanted chil­dren who read the books to be able to read­ily iden­tify with the char­ac­ters. Sharp chose sto­ries where the char­ac­ters par­tic­i­pated in typ­i­cal chil­dren's activities. [6] [7]

The Dick and Jane primers taught read­ing as well as Amer­i­can mid­dle-class val­ues to school-aged chil­dren. The sto­ry­lines de­scribed the lives and ex­pe­ri­ences of a stereo­typ­i­cal Amer­i­can mid­dle-class, white fam­ily in their sub­ur­ban home. "Fa­ther" wore a suit, worked in an of­fice, mowed the lawn, and washed the car. "Mother" stayed at home, did house­work, and raised the chil­dren. "Dick," the old­est of the fam­ily's three chil­dren, was ac­tive and well-be­haved; "Jane," the sec­ond old­est child, was pretty and care­free. She also helped care for "Sally," the baby of the family. [5] [6] [7]

The texts and il­lus­tra­tions for the Dick and Jane primers were in­tended to work to­gether to help young read­ers un­der­stand the story. The texts in­tro­duced a repet­i­tive pat­tern of words; [6] the il­lus­tra­tions pro­vided vi­sual re­in­force­ments to help con­vey the mean­ing of the words. [7] The sim­ple but dis­tinc­tive il­lus­tra­tions for the books were done by artists Eleanor Camp­bell and Keith Ward. Robert Chil­dress did the il­lus­tra­tions dur­ing the 1950s. Richard Wiley took over the il­lus­tra­tions in the 1960s. [ citation needed ] The Dick and Jane be­gin­ning read­ers be­came well known for their sim­ple nar­ra­tive text and wa­ter­color il­lus­tra­tions. Be­cause the primers were in­tended for na­tion­wide dis­tri­b­u­tion, the text and il­lus­tra­tions in­ten­tion­ally lacked ref­er­ences to spe­cific re­gional ge­o­graph­i­cal fea­tures such as moun­tains, rivers, lakes, plains, or the seashore. [5] [7]

In the mid-1950s, the texts for grades four, five, and six were split into two books for each grade level, as was orig­i­nally the pat­tern with the lower grades in the se­ries. The nam­ing pat­tern for this group of books added the words "The New" at the be­gin­ning of the title for the first book in each grade level and the work "More" to the be­gin­ning of the title for the sec­ond book in each grade level to form new ti­tles: The New Times and Places and More Times and Places ; The New Days and Deeds and More Days and Deeds ; and The New Peo­ple and Progress and More Peo­ple and Progress . [ citation needed ]

In the late 1950s, the texts for grades seven and eight were re-pack­aged into a Basic Read­ing and Literature se­ries con­sist­ing of Book 1 (for sev­enth grade) and Book 2 (for eighth grade) with­out chang­ing any of the con­tents from the orig­i­nal late 1940s ver­sions. As an al­ter­na­tive to this more lit­er­ary ap­proach for these two grades, en­tirely new texts were pub­lished with shorter, sim­pler read­ings with the ti­tles of Pa­rades and More Parades for the sev­enth grade and Panora­mas and More Panoramas for the eighth grade. Fo­cus­ing on tar­geted read­ing and word at­tack tech­niques, a soft-cover work­book, Basic Read­ing Skills , was pub­lished for the ju­nior high (sev­enth and/or eighth grade) and in­tended to be used in­de­pen­dently, sim­i­lar to the Think And Do books were used in con­junc­tion with the graded texts at the el­e­men­tary school level. [ citation needed ]

Scott Fore­man made changes in their read­ers in the 1960s in an ef­fort to keep the sto­ries rel­e­vant, up­dat­ing the se­ries every five years. [5] Scott Fores­man pub­lished Wide Wide World in 1960 for the sev­enth grade; it in­cluded longer lit­er­ary se­lec­tions from au­thors such as Nathaniel Hawthorne , Emily Dick­in­son , and Rud­yard Kipling . [ citation needed ]

In the mid-1960s, Scott Fores­man's New New Basic Readers were heav­ily re­vised. The books had a larger page size, new and up­dated art­work, some short­ened sto­ries from pre­vi­ous edi­tions, and a large por­tion of new sto­ries. In ad­di­tion, the "Dick," "Jane," and "Sally" char­ac­ters were a bit older and a bit more so­phis­ti­cated. Teach­ing pro­ce­dures also were slightly dif­fer­ent: the vo­cab­u­lary con­trol was looser and more phon­ics train­ing was added. Helen M. Robin­son be­came the head au­thor. The ear­li­est ti­tles, re­leased in 1962, were: We Read Pictures , We Read More Pictures , Be­fore We Read , Sally Dick and Jane , Fun With Our Family , Fun Wher­ever We Are , Guess Who , Fun With Our Friends , More Fun With Our Friends (all Grade 1); Friends Old and New and More Friends Old and New (grade 2); Roads to Follow and More Roads to Follow (grade 3); Ven­tures (grade 4); Vis­tas (grade 5); Cav­al­cades (grade 6); Di­men­sions (grade 7); and Chal­lenges (grade 8). [ citation needed ]

In 1965, Scott Fores­man be­came the first pub­lisher to in­tro­duce an African Amer­i­can fam­ily as char­ac­ters in a first-grade reader se­ries. The fam­ily in­cluded two par­ents and their three chil­dren: a son, "Mike," and twin daugh­ters, "Pam" and "Penny." [7] In the multi-eth­nic edi­tion, the ti­tles of the 1st and 2nd pre-primers were changed to Now We Read and Fun With the Family to re­flect the ad­di­tion of an African-Amer­i­can fam­ily. Other books in the se­ries re­tained the 1962 ti­tles. In ad­di­tion, the 1965 edi­tion books were avail­able in two cov­ers: one cover fea­tured char­ac­ters as in pre­vi­ous books; the other cover, which many peo­ple refer to as a "fin­ger­paint" cover, was listed in the Scott, Fores­man cat­a­log a "child-art" and did not fea­ture any char­ac­ters. The Think-and-Do Book work­books, which began as Silent Read­ing Workbooks with the Elson read­ers if the 1930s, were part of the 1950s and the 1960s edi­tions of the up­dated read­ers. An ex­per­i­men­tal Ini­tial Teach­ing Al­pha­bet ver­sion was launched with the multi-eth­nic se­ries in the 1960s as well. [ citation needed ]

In 1967, two years after Scott Fores­man re­tired the Dick and Jane se­ries, the com­pany launched its Open High­ways se­ries, which in­cluded heav­ily il­lus­trated clas­sic chil­dren's sto­ries and poems, as well as plac­ing greater em­pha­sis on mul­ti­cul­tural con­tent and phon­ics train­ing in its sub­se­quent readers. [7] Wide Hori­zons, a com­pan­sion se­ries for ad­vanced read­ers, was in­tro­duced as well. Ini­tially, the read­ers for grades one through seven were in­di­cated as "Book 1," "Book 2," and so on, but later edi­tions for each grade-level reader had its own title in the se­ries, such as Ready to Roll and Rolling Along (the Open High­ways books for the first grade): Mov­ing Ahead and More Power for the sec­ond grade' and Splen­did Journey and Speed­ing Away books for the third grade. [ citation needed ]

The Dick and Jane read­ers in­spired other pub­lish­ers to adopt a sim­i­lar for­mat, but Scott Fores­man's Dick and Jane se­ries were the mar­ket lead­ers until the early 1960s, [7]
In Catholic edi­tions of the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s se­ries, the "Sally," "Dick," and "Jane" char­ac­ters were re­name "Judy," "John," and "Jean" to re­flect the names of Catholic saints . An­other se­ries, pub­lished by Ginn and Com­pany , fea­tured char­ac­ters named "David" and "Ann". Groups of sto­ries in each book were re­placed by Catholic-ori­ented sto­ries of the saints or por­trayed moral choices. Some 1960s grade-level read­ers also had Sev­enth-day Ad­ven­tist ver­sions that used the 1965 multi-eth­nic char­ac­ters with re­vised book title. For ex­am­ple, Now We Read be­came Friends to Know and Fun Wher­ever We Are be­came Places to Know . W. J. Gage pub­lished British Eng­lish lan­guage ver­sions in Canada with ap­pro­pri­ate spelling changes. In lower grades French lan­guage ver­sions also were is­sued in the 1950s in Canada, with the main char­ac­ters re­named Jeanne, Paul, and Lise in these editions, [9] as well as British Eng­lish ver­sions in pa­per­back in the United King­dom . [ citation needed ]

For three decades (roughly 1940 to 1970), the whole-word or look-say method (also called sight read­ing ) on which the Dick and Jane read­ers were based re­mained the dom­i­nant read­ing method in Amer­i­can schools; it was re­placed with more phon­ics -based read­ing meth­ods in the 1970s, and the whole-lan­guage move­ment in the 1980s. Other meth­ods were also in use for shorter pe­ri­ods be­fore they were re­placed as well. [10] [11] The look-say method used a con­trolled vo­cab­u­lary and taught read­ers to mem­o­rize the words through rep­e­ti­tion , plac­ing less em­pha­sis on teach­ing phon­ics [10] Texts in the Dick and Jane read­ers re­peated words within phrases such as "Oh, see. Oh, see Jane. Funny, funny Jane." [ citation needed ] Teacher guides ac­com­pa­ny­ing the texts also en­cour­aged adop­tion of the whole-word (look-say) method of iden­ti­fy­ing the mean­ing of words from the il­lus­tra­tions and re­peat­ing words in­tro­duced in the text. [7]

Pho­netic analy­sis was part of each read­ing les­son, al­though not to the de­gree one would as­so­ci­ate with learn­ing to read by pure phon­ics. For this rea­son, the Dick and Jane read­ers came to be used less and less as stud­ies sup­ported phon­ics as a more ef­fec­tive method of gain­ing lit­er­acy . [ citation needed ] Texts in the pri­mary grades em­pha­sized Learn­ing to Read , but in fourth grade and above the focus was Read­ing to Learn , with con­tent be­com­ing very important. [ citation needed ]

Ac­cord­ing to the his­tory of the In­sti­tute for Ju­ve­nile Re­search , psy­chol­o­gist Mar­ion Mon­roe de­vel­oped meth­ods for early child­hood read­ing pro­grams, which led to the Dick and Jane stories. [12]

For decades, crit­ics and ad­vo­cates con­tin­ued to de­bate the im­pact of the sight read­ing method and the primers that used it. [5] Dr. Samuel T. Orton, a neu­ropathol­o­gist, warned ed­u­ca­tors in his ar­ti­cle pub­lished in the Feb­ru­ary 1929 issue of the Jour­nal of Ed­u­ca­tional Psychology that the look-say method would lead to read­ing disability. [13] In Why Johnny Can't Read (1955), au­thor Rudolf Flesch con­cluded that the whole-word (look-say) method was in­ef­fec­tive be­cause it lacked phon­ics train­ing. In ad­di­tion, Flesch was crit­i­cal of the sim­ple sto­ries and lim­ited text and vo­cab­u­lary in the Dick-and-Jane-style read­ers that taught stu­dents to read through word memorization. [13] [7] Flesch and other crit­ics also be­lieved that the look-say method did not prop­erly pre­pare stu­dents to read more com­plex ma­te­ri­als in the upper grade levels. [7] [14] Arther Trace also crit­i­cized the Dick and Jane se­ries in his book, Read­ing With­out Dick and Jane (1965). [15] In 2002, au­thor Samuel L. Blu­men­feld, a sup­porter of teach­ing read­ing skills with phon­ics read­ing, ar­gued that the Dick and Jane se­ries and oth­ers that used the whole-word, look-say, or sight-read­ing method caused poor read­ing skills among the mil­lions of Amer­i­can stu­dents who learned to read using this method. [13]
Harold Hen­der­son as­serted in his book, Let's Kill Dick and Jane (2006) that the se­ries fo­cused on triv­ial as­pects of read­ing and left chil­dren far be­hind their peers in Europe. [16]

In the late 1950s and early 1960s, crit­ics of the Dick and Jane read­ers began to point out its stereo­types; class, gen­der, and racial bias; and er­rors in con­tent and il­lus­tra­tions. Crit­ics ob­jected to the Dick and Jane sto­ry­lines and stereo­typed roles, ar­gu­ing that "many stu­dents could not re­late to fam­ily with two chil­dren, a dog named Spot, and a cat named Puff." [1] In­creas­ing so­cial changes, in­clud­ing the civil rights move­ment in the 1960s and ef­forts to in­clude a stronger pre­sen­ta­tion of other races and cul­tures in class­room texts, made the white, mid­dle-class char­ac­ters of "Dick and Jane seem in­creas­ingly ir­rel­e­vant to some." [5] Zerna Sharp, who cre­ated the char­ac­ters and edited the read­ers coun­tered the harsh criticisms [6] with the reply, "That's all an adult's viewpoint." [2]

Al­though the Dick and Jane primers were al­ready de­clin­ing in pop­u­lar­ity by the mid-1960s, crit­ics con­tin­ued to at­tack the look-say method and the con­tent of the read­ers, es­pe­cially their gen­der stereo­types (i.e., the mother stay­ing at home to take care of the chil­dren and keep house, while the fa­ther went to work, along with pas­sive fe­male char­ac­ters such as Jane) and lack of racial and cul­tural di­ver­sity. African Amer­i­can char­ac­ters were not in­tro­duced in the first-grade read­ers until 1965, the same year the Dick and Jane se­ries was retired. [7]

I have great pride in tak­ing Dick and Jane out of most school li­braries. That is my great­est satisfaction. [ citation needed ]
You learn to read in school with Dick and Jane, but the Dick and Jane stuff was so dull! [17] You know, the sto­ries were stu­pid, even for a first or sec­ond grader. Years later I saw some of the fa­mous McGuf­fey read­ers , go back fur­ther, things that my mother's gen­er­a­tion would read from in the 1930s or 1920s, and those things were filled with real sto­ries from real writ­ers that the kids were learn­ing. But my gen­er­a­tion, the baby boomers, we had Dick and Jane, and that couldn’t con­vince me to keep read­ing. But Bat­man and Su­per­man could: they were much more in­ter­est­ing than Dick and Jane.

The primers that made the char­ac­ters of "Dick," "Jane," and "Sally" house­hold words have be­come icons of mid-cen­tury Amer­i­can cul­ture, as well as col­lec­tors' items. [5] [7] First edi­tions of the books sell for as much as US$ 200.
Gros­set & Dun­lap , an im­print of Pen­guin Group , reis­sued the books in 2003, and over 2.5 mil­lion copies were sold, but the pub­lish­ers warned against using them to teach read­ing to chil­dren. Re­lated mer­chan­dise, such as shirts and mag­nets, also gained wide pop­u­lar­ity, par­tic­u­larly among peo­ple who had never been ex­posed to the orig­i­nal se­ries, but were fa­mil­iar with catch­phrases such as "See Spot run!".

The Dick and Jane read­ers were fea­tured in an ex­hi­bi­tion at Lake­view Mu­seum of Arts and Sci­ences in Peo­ria, Illi­nois , in 1994 and at the Rich­mond Pub­lic Li­brary in Rich­mond, In­di­ana , in 1997. [5]
