Summary This book provides concise, practical and very readable expositions of available knowledge about language (listening, speaking, reading and writing) from the pre-school stage onwards. The author stresses the importance of using children's experiences and natural interests as motivating forces in helping them to acquire the language arts of listening, speaking, reading and writing. She recognises children's need for specific help in this task and argues that teachers must take account of the many variables that influence a child's progress. Several instances of successful practice in schools are described
