The study offers many examples of the children's experiences of spoken and written language, recorded in naturally occurring settings in their homes and classrooms, and shows the active role that children play in their own development as they both make sense of the world around them and master the linguistic means for communicating about it. This second edition sets the findings of the original study in the context of recent research in the sociocultural tradition inspired by Vygotsky's work, and includes examples of effective teaching drawn from the author's 8-year collaborative action project with teachers in Toronto.
