Review Quotes:
'This book provides an absorbing read for educators who interest themselves in the nature of pupils' writing, particularly the effect of teachers' "reading" of their work. This book then is essential reading for all concerned with the development of children's learning through interaction with their emergent literacies ...' - Elaine Millard, Journal of Early Childhood Literacy
