Before Words: Wordless Picture Books and the Development of Reading in Young Children - Language and Literacy
Judith T. Lysaker
As an alternative to reductive views of emergent literacy, Lysaker explains how wordless books help young children to develop a range of comprehension abilities that are important for understanding narrative texts. Readers will find concrete methods to help them gauge, document, and respond to children as they make meaning of wordless books.
