Books by Marian R Whitehead

Language and literacy are at the heart of the early years and primary curriculum, and this book provides a thorough grounding in the essentials of the subject, while also updating the reader on the latest developments in policy and practice.

Looking at the important aspect of human development - communication and language in the early years - this book gives carers, parents, teachers and other professionals who work and play with young children an understanding of children's communication and language development in the years from birth to age eight.
