Bus, Adriana G.; van IJzendoorn, Marinus H.
Child Development, v59 n5 p1262-72 Oct 1988
Studied interactions which are related to written language, attachment security, and emergent literacy between 45 mothers and their children, aged one-and-a-half to five-and-a-half years. Results suggest that mothers give reading instruction to small children by naming letters and well-known words which contain those letters. Mother-child interaction is related to attachment security and emergent literacy. (RJC)
