Book reviews

The current issue of Community Literacy Journal 15(2) features reviews of two books published in series edited at the Literacy Research Centre. Sam Duncan’s book, Oral Literacies: when adults read aloud is reviewed by Jamie Duncan (not related, we promise!) and Jamie’s book, Researching Protest Literacies: Literacy as protest in the favelas of Rio de Janeiro is reviewed by Catherine Compton-Lilly. Jamie’s book has also been reviewed in the Journal of Sociolinguistics by Daniel N. Silva. If you do not have access to that journal and would like to read the review, contact Jamie Duncan (details on our affiliate members page).

If you are working in the area of Literacy Studies and would like to discuss making a proposal for either series, contact Julia Gillen or Uta Papen.
