The first part of the volume deals with comprehensive reviews related to the variation of literacy in different regions of the globe as a function of socio-political, sociocultural, and language and writing system factors.

!-- [if !supportLists]--This book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the literature on home literacy environment and its association with literacy skills in different languages and contexts. Home literacy environment (HLE), an umbrella term that encompasses various activities parents engage in with their children, has been studied extensively by psychologists, linguists, behavioral geneticists, and educators. However, no systematic effort has been put into synthesizing this growing body of research in a coherent manner, making it difficult for researchers and various stakeholders to understand the key points of past research while keeping up with the latest research findings. To address this need, the first part of the book provides an overview of the current literature on conceptualizations of HLE, covering prominent theoretical models, the measurement of HLE, the potential extension and generalizability of models across contexts, the intersections between home learning environment in literacy, numeracy, and other domains, and the genetic and environmental etiology of literacy development The second section of the book hosts a wide variety of studies from all over the world, conducted in English-speaking countries (UK, U.S., Canada), Finland, Greece, Turkey, China, Japan, the Philippines and other Southeast Asian countries, and Chile and other Latin American and Caribbean countries, while it includes chapters with both typically-developing children and children at familial risk of dyslexia. The third section of this book offers a comprehensive collection of chapters on intervention studies examining the role of family literacy programs, dialogic reading, and onscreen digital access. Together, the 22 chapters of this book elucidate the complex nature of HLE and provide future research directions and instructional recommendations on how parents and policymakers can improve home literacy practices around the world. As such, this book is valuable for researchers, educators, and other professionals, and the readership ranges from graduate students and scholars to parents and policymakers.

"The scope and nature of this account of the modern history of reading/literacy education (especially tied to the aspirational readers) are unique. Enlisting the metaphor of waves, it traces monumental shifts in theory, research and practice related to reading education and literacy that represent developments that verge on revolutionary changes. Each of these waves is accompanied with a discussion of the aspirational reader that sets the stage for contemplating these shifts and their significance. The discussions trace the research and theoretical developments in a fashion that exemplifies the origins of the shifts and their influences"--

This is the first international and interdisciplinary handbook to offer a comprehensive and an in-depth overview of findings from contemporary research, theory, and practice in early childhood language education in various parts of the world and with different populations. The contributions by leading scholars and practitioners are structured to give a survey of the topic, highlight its importance, and provide a critical stance. The book covers preschool ages, and looks at children belonging to diverse ethno-linguistic groups and experiencing different histories and pathways of their socio-linguistic and socio-cultural development and early education. The languages under the scope of this handbook are identified by the contributors as immigrant languages, indigenous, endangered, heritage, regional, minority, majority, and marginalized, as well as foreign and second languages, all of which are discussed in relation to early language education as the key concept of the handbook. In this volume, “early language education” will refer to any kind of setting, both formal and informal (e.g. nursery, kindergarten, early childhood education centers, complementary early schooling etc.) in which language learning within a context of children's sociolinguistic diversity takes place before elementary school.

Dyslexia in Many Languages thoroughly investigates the fascinating relationship between dyslexia and language systems by highlighting research and practice initiatives around the world. Focusing on how dyslexia manifests itself in non-English languages, readers of this text will enhance their understanding and appreciation for the role of language systems and the interplay they have with dyslexia, assessment and intervention. Experienced and expert contributors around the world consider how dyslexia is defined, assessed, and supported in their native country, drawing on the linguistic features of that language and how this affects monolingual, bilingual and multilingual speakers. This book also compares dyslexia in different languages and questions what are the universal lessons that we can learn from comparing dyslexia in different languages and do different languages affect its prevalence and incidence? The editors consider the implications for classroom practice, such as learning and teaching challenges, the social emotional and educational impact on the child as a learner and considers the various sides of the educational process of students with dyslexia in different languages. This volume is essential reading for teachers and psychologists who deal with a large number of students and patients coming from different language backgrounds. Researchers and educators interested in dyslexia in different languages will also find its contents useful and relevant in their learning and work contexts.
