This book contains excellent material to assist teachers who work
with preschoolers in understanding what 'emergent literacy' really
means. It also emphasizes that children do not all march to the
same internal time-keeper. The statement on page 10 'providing rich
experiences for brain development and then leaving children to
their own unique timetable is still the best practice' helps create
understanding of the child's individuality in maturation and
understanding. Otherwise, the book is a giant collection of
stories, poems, activities, tongue-twisters that will aid teachers
as they pave the way for children to acquire a desire to read and
understand, as well as speak and communicate. - Laverne Nelson,
Research Associate, University of Arkansas
