A Cross-Case Study of Children's Oral Narratives and Image Reading of a Wordless Picturebook
Reading & Writing Quarterly, v40 n3 p191-210 2024
Young children read wordless books as an important early literacy learning activity. This study explores oral narrative construction and image reading of a wordless book by six K-2 children. Through a cross-case analysis, the results indicate growth of coherence and cohesion building in the verbal narratives across grade levels, as well as a complexity of image reading as children make connections to their lifeworlds and actively use their social imaginations.
