This book builds on conversations between the author educators and
other experts in the field, including authors, illustrators and
teachers, to explore the benefits of discussions around quality
literature within a classroom context that exercises the
imagination and generates new ideas and discoveries. The book
focuses on a range of strategies that can be utilised to reimagine
literacy learning in a 21st century context including parent and
teacher talk; active listening; fostering student driven questions;
building vocabulary and imagery; and metacognitive talk. These are
argued to have a hugely beneficial impact on how children learn to
solve problems, engage in complex thought processes, negotiate
meaning, as well as learning how to wonder, explore, create and
defend ideas. The book also defends the importance of parents,
teachers and academics as 'storytellers', using their bodies and
voices as instruments of engagement and power. It will make
compelling reading for students, teachers and researchers working
in the fields of education and sociology, particularly those with
an interest in creative methods for improving literacy.
