In the updated third edition of this unique book, Catherine McBride looks at reading and writing development and impairment across a range of languages, scripts, and contexts. This new edition highlights multiliteracy and multilingualism and broadly explores the science of reading.

A timely and important contribution to our understanding of literacy around the world, the book includes a new chapter covering the impact of digital technology on children’s literacy development, and covers other issues including:

• The importance of phonological sensitivity for learning to read and to write
• The first units, or building blocks, of literacy learning in different scripts such as Chinese, English, Korean Hangul, Hindi and Arabic
• The role of visual processing in reading and writing skills
• How the latest research can inform the teaching of reading and writing
• An overview of of dyslexia and dysgraphia, including recent neuroscientific research
• The developmental process of becoming biliterate
• What is special about writing for beginners and later for comprehensive writing
• Basics of reading comprehension

Written by an eminent scholar in the field, it provides an overview of how children learn to read and write and is essential reading for students and scholars of Developmental Psychology, Educational Psychology, Psycholinguistics and Speech Therapy.

Recenzijos

The author provides state-of-the-art insights into cultural, linguistic, and educational contexts in which children succeed in (or indeed struggle with) learning to read and write worldwide. She has a profound understanding of the Science of Reading and gives a multitude of illustrative examples. The book is highly informative to students and practitioners who are interested in literacy development.

Karin Landerl, Professor of Developmental Psychology, University of Graz, Austria

I am thrilled that Dr McBride has updated her text on childrens reading development. Ive long used it in my undergraduate teaching and as an introductory text for my own graduate students. It has always provided comprehensible and readable introductions to the core factors that determine reading development, and it has done so in an international context, covering research across a range of languages. This new edition has updated reviews on those classic predictors, and also incorporated reviews on current topics, such as the influence of both COVID-19 pandemic and digitalization on reading development. Im excited to be able to use this new text in my teaching and mentoring!

This is a uniquely important book that combines an insightful and superbly informed analysis of both reading and writing across languages and scripts. It is a tremendous resource for professionals and families alike.
