Early Spellingtakes a new look at the phenomena of spelling, setting it in the context of current concerns about early literacy. The book reveals how looking at a child's spelling can help us understand the child's engagement with the world. Tensions between the demands of authority and convention and the dynamics of creativity and innovation are reflected in the child's writing and spelling.
