This cutting-edge Handbook explores the interactive and intergenerational nature of literacy across diverse environments, considering how disadvantaged families can be better supported through tailored programs. It provides an extensive exploration of family literacy, covering early childhood development, parenting education, and intervention services.

Renowned experts outline multimodal and multilingual literacy practices and examine the role of community initiatives such as after-school programs and in-home book gifting, highlighting their impact on literacy and cultural preservation. Chapters propose frameworks for implementing culturally responsive education, providing novel perspectives on the role of mobile applications in heritage language literacy and on raising multilingual children. Ultimately, the Handbook illustrates the significance of family and community literacy, using case studies to present strategies which aid childhood literacy development.

The Handbook of Literacy in Families and Communities is vital for students and scholars in sociology, family and gender studies, cultural studies, development studies and educational studies. Its streamlined approach to literacy practices makes it an essential resource for practitioners in social work and linguistics.

‘Edwards, Compton-Lilly, and Li curate a rich and wide array of studies featuring both national and transnational contexts. The research provides textured and insightful accounts of the literate lives and learning of families, ones which are too often invisible in formal schooling settings. The Handbook powerfully honors robust linguistic and cultural pluralism, challenging deficit ideologies of communities while charting a vision that can help us build mutual and just educational partnerships. The Handbook of Literacy in Families and Communities will be indispensable reading for years to come.'
