LUK MUME LUK DADE I KAN RIT Una Villiers Toronto, Scholastic-TAB, 1989. 96pp, paper, $16.95 ISBN 0-590-71701-4. CIP Adult/Professional Reviewed by Donna Doyle. Volume 18 Number 2 1990 March Una Villiers has been an educator for twenty-three years as a teacher, cur­riculum consultant and vice-principal in Toronto. She is committed to the whole-language approach. Luk Mume is a collection of writings and drawings by twenty-five children, aged five to seven, studied over three years. Villiers explains the development she witnessed and the process that led to it. The book presents a fully rounded picture of whole language - from pictures and letters that can only be translated by the child to communica­tion in sentences and paragraphs, and on to punctuation and editing. This book is aimed at teachers and parents. Large print, generous spacing, colourful illustrations and simple lan­guage make it an enjoyable, informative read. Luk Mume should guide both parents and teachers through the whole-language method and teach them how to react to the child's writing at each stage and how to recognize developing communication skills.
