Summary Goodman's What's Whole in Whole Language? became the handbook of the revolution for equality and justice for all children that occurred in classrooms around the world. Teachers were inspired to put aside commercial materials that were based on very limited understandings of reading and writing, and instead placed children and their very natural curiosity about language and learning at the center of classroom activity. This new edition examines the shift in political discourse of reading research and teaching young children to read, and sheds light on what really happened to progressive educators and whole language teachers at the end of the 20th century.
