I found the article by Chris O. very helpful, and insightful. The stages of literacy development was well articulated that I wouldn't have asked for more. His ideas have helped me coordinate my work and I credited him for that. thanks Chris. I wish you all the best. Ifeyinwa David-Ojukwu (ifeyinwa.david-ojukwu@unn.edu.ng)
