One of the notable features of this compilation is that it helps us think about promoting children’s language and literacy skills early—during the infant and toddler years. This is well justified. Numerous studies suggest that the quality of language experiences in the earliest years of life affects children’s later language development (e.g., Hart & Risley 1995; Hadley et al. 2011). The content in this collection continues through the second and third grade years. Such focus is critical, as children’s language and literacy skills in these grades predict later literacy achievement (e.g., Nation & Snowling 2004; Catts et al. 2012).
