Early Years Update

Radically rewritten and updated in light of new research and developments, the new edition of this important book gives clear guidance to early years practitioners on how to support young children’s language and literacy development.

• An expanded chapter showing a range of good practices in three different settings (nursery school, integrated children’s centre and Steiner kindergartens)
