{"product_id":"childrens-books-brain-development-and-ralf-thiede-9780815361893","title":"Children's Books, Brain Development, and Language Acquisition","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book correlates English-speaking children's brain development and acquisition of language with the linguistic input that comes from children's books. Drawing from the most current research on the developing brain, the author demonstrates how language acquisition is exclusively interactive, and highlights the benefit that accrues when that interaction includes the exploratory language play found in early childhood literature. Through discussions of specific domains of grammar, the relation of these domains to children's literature through scaffolding, and the resultant linguistic and cognitive advantages for the child, this volume offers an innovative approach to early brain maturation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ralf Thiede\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0815361890\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780815361893\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/07\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.13lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.63d","brand":"Ralf Thiede","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47422715855103,"sku":"9780815361893","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_29502572-abf2-4339-ab05-cdf979e716e0.jpg?v=1761527977","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/childrens-books-brain-development-and-ralf-thiede-9780815361893","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
