As parent, reading partner, and social science observer, Shelby Wolf documented countless moments during the preschool and early grade-school years of her two daughters. The Braid of Literature interweaves her careful observations and analysis with Shirley Brice Heath's insightful commentary, drawing on current research in anthropology, linguistics, and cognitive psychology. Together, they have produced an unusual study of two young children who are learning to negotiate between the multiple texts of their everyday lives and their make-believe story worlds. For researchers, this book will serve as a rich resource on a range of interdisciplinary topics. For parents and teachers, it is dramatic confirmation of the important role that literary language can play in children's literacy and socialization.

This book confirms the positive value of literature in children's lives and the value of parental involvement in the literacy process. -- Mary Ann Dzama "Childhood Education" One of the most creative--and readable--pieces of research to emerge recently in the field of children's literacy...The writing is graceful, even at times lyrical. -- Betsy Hearne "American Journal of Education" "This is a book for those who care about the miracle of literature that life imitates. It is a sensitive and learned account of two young girls growing up with parents who are both professionally and personally involved in that miracle. It recounts how the girls learned to recognize and to construe, as Faulkner once put it, the human heart in conflict with itself, first in fables and stories, and then in life itself. In a season when we mostly are supplied with books on learning to read, ' here is a first-class one on reading to learn.'" --Jerome Bruner "One of the most creative--and readable--pieces of research to emerge recently in the field of children's literacy...The writing is graceful, even at times lyrical." --Betsy Hearne, "American Journal of Education" "This book confirms the positive value of literature in children's lives and the value of parental involvement in the literacy process." --Mary Ann Dzama, "Childhood Education"
