Synopsis

This book presents a developmental view of language, the emergence of literacy and the role of literature in the early years, a period characterised by unparalleled speed and complexity of growth in thinking, language, social and cultural awareness and physical skills. There are chapters on communication, play, narrative and national literacy requirements, which provide a helpful way into some complex issues as well as child observations and case studies. The book will be valuable reading for all adults seeking to support young children's language and literacy learning.
