Reviews

This book represents a major achievement by the two editors and it reflects the depth and breadth of experience in developmental crosslinguistic research for which they are both so well-known....the book clearly and convincingly demonstrates an increase in the complexity of 'narrative packaging' as children develop. This is, of course, relatively well known, but this book supports and extends this with a wealth of rich detail, crosslinguistic range and insight....I have no doubt that this is one of the most useful and informative books on the development of narrative structure to have appeared in a very long time.
