Multimodal Perspectives of Language, Literacy, and Learning in Early Childhood

The volume's explicit focus on children's visual texts ("art") facilitates understanding of multimodal approaches to language, literacy, and learning. Authentic examples feature diverse contexts, including classrooms, homes, museums, and intergenerational spaces, and illustrate children's "sense-making" of lifeexperiences such as birth, identity, environmental phenomena, immigration, social justice, and homelessness.
