Language and literacy are crucial for inclusion in a new context but these must be developed in spaces where these children feel safe to explore themes that resonate with their experiences; to express their understanding and to engage in intercultural exchange. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eVisual Journeys Through Wordless Narratives\u003c\/i\u003e presents the exploration of response strategies to Shaun Tan's \u003ci\u003eThe Arrival\u003c\/i\u003e. The inquiry was carried out in educational settings, with children from many different parts of the world, in four host countries: the UK, Spain, Italy and the USA. The findings reveal the benefits of using wordless narratives such as picturebooks and graphic novels together with visual strategies to support immigrant children's literary understandings and visual literacy. They also reveal the wealth of experiences the children bring with them which have the potential to transform educational practices.","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45088212713623,"sku":"9781780936376","price":4985.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781780936376.webp?v=1767143154","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/visual-journeys-through-wordless-narratives-9781780936376","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
