"As children begin to use language in early childhood, they produce increasingly large
units of coherent speech, including narrative descriptions of events. This book examines
the process of narrative development in young children, focusing on the development
of 'cohesion' - the use of speech and gesture to create coherent perspectives on events.
Surveying early narrative development in which gesture plays an integral part, the
book explores the development of cohesive, clause-linking devices during the period
from age two to three. Illustrated with longitudinal cases studies, the book examines
the crib-talk of two-year-old Emily and compares it to the discourse patterns of storybooks
and nursery rhymes, and to her father's pre-bedtime routines. In a second case study,
the authors trace the changing relationships between speech and gesture in the spontaneous
narratives of two-year-old Ella. This book will be invaluable to students and researchers
in language acquisition, developmental psychology and gesture studies"
