Meier (language and literacy, Wheelock College) presents a text abut effective literacy instruction for children in grades K through 4 who use the language variety referred to by many contemporary linguists as African American English, which the author identifies as Black Communications (BC). Coverage includes an overview of the BC system, including its stylistic/rhetorical--also called the "pragmatic"--component, lexicon, phonology, and grammar; a review of existing research on African American children's language socialization; using African American children's literature to teach the essential comprehension strategies of connecting, visualizing, inferring, questioning, and summarizing/retelling; and helping BC speakers learn to decode. For researchers, faculty, and graduate students in language and literacy education and linguistics. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
