Four years after publishing her provocative study, Reading Families: The Literate Lives of Urban Children, ComptonLilly revisits the same group of urban students (then first graders, now fourth and fifth graders) and their families. Armed with rare longitudinal data from followup interviews and reading assessments, she once again upsets widespread misconceptions about reading and urban families. This eyeopening sequel uses case studies to explore important issues, such as students feelings of connection to their school; gender and schooling; parents experiences dealing with the system; highstakes testing; and technology use at home.Building on past insights, this book: Uses an innovative approach to educational research to explore why urban students often have difficulty becoming proficient readers. Employs case studies to support a new construct called reading capital. Offers important recommendations for teaching in diverse communities. Models longitudinal qualitative research, describing the critical role it plays in studying a childs experiences with school.
