Urban Kindergartners' Literary Understanding of Picture Storybooks.
Sipe, Lawrence; Bauer, Jeffrey
New Advocate, v14 n4 p329-42 Fall 2001
Examines the oral responses of a class of urban kindergartners as stories were read aloud to them by their teacher, with the purpose of describing these responses as evidence of literary understanding. Finds that the children did not understand the stories as rigid and unbending structures, but as the raw materials for molding a variety of meanings. (SG)
