Reading Families: The Literate Lives of Urban Children and Their Families - Practitioner Inquiry Series
Catherine Compton-Lilly
This text offers a glimpse into the literacy development of urban children and their families' role in it. Based on the author's interviews with her students, their parents and grandparents, it challenges the stereotypical view that urban parents don't care about their children's education.
