Description
Janet Maybin explores how children use talk and literacy to construct knowledge about their social worlds and themselves. She examines collaborative verbal strategies, personal stories and reworked voices to investigate the moral order and forge individual identities.
This study reveals how 10-12 year-olds use language and narrative to make sense of their world and form a sense of self. By investigating these processes, Maybin sheds light on the ways in which children construct knowledge and develop their understanding of themselves and others.
