Description

Janet Maybin explores how children use talk and literacy to construct knowledge about their social worlds and themselves at the age of 10-12. She examines collaborative verbal strategies, personal stories and reworked voices to investigate moral order and forge identities.

This study sheds light on how young people use language to make sense of their world and themselves. By investigating the ways in which children engage with talk and literacy, Maybin provides valuable insights into the development of identity and social understanding during this critical period.
