Children’s talk among themselves is full of anecdotes, narrative fragments and references to popular TV and film stories. Janet argues that these narratives provide children with unique opportunities for representing, exploring and evaluating personal and fictional experience and presenting themselves as particular kinds of people.
Janet Maybin was originally trained as a social anthropologist and has written extensively for Open University courses on English language and language arts. She researches and writes on adults’ and children’s informal language and literacy practices, focussing currently on narrative, creativity and voice. Publications include Children's voices: talk, knowledge and identity (2006), The Art of English: everyday texts and practices (coedited 2006) and The Routledge Companion to English Language Studies (coedited 2010).
