Description
This book explores the connections between language, social-emotional development and literacy in early childhood. It examines how responsive adult-child interactions influence language development and profiles effective programs that support this development.
Research-based insights are shared on topics such as brain development, parent-child attachment, executive function skills and socioeconomic factors, providing a comprehensive understanding of the complex relationships between these areas and language development.
The book also showcases over a dozen programs that coach parents and provide books for young children to support language and literacy development, offering practical guidance for professionals and parents alike.
