In their book about early childhood writers, the authors take us into early childhood classrooms and show how our youngest writers write for a variety of purposes across the curriculum. This is a practical book that describes classroom routines, shows how teachers organize their classrooms so writing becomes a privileged practice, and offers several examples of teaching practices that encourage developing writers.

In their powerful, practical book about young writers, Ray and Glover show the broad range of writing in preschool and kindergarten classrooms. Using a myriad of student samples, Ray and Glover highlight the developmental signs present in students’ writing. They also explain how teachers might interpret the multimodal acts surrounding student writing. Through bookmaking, Ray and Glover describe how our youngest writers have always been ready to be authentic authors.
