Abstract
Conversation analytic work on young children’s storytelling across various settings (e.g., Burdeski & Evaldsson, 2019) has not typically entertained change over time (see Filipi, 2019, for an exception). This chapter investigates the developmental trajectory of a young child’s everyday storytelling competence during family mealtime interactions. Data are drawn from 22 hours of 51 video-recorded mealtime conversations that involve Zoe (at the ages of 3 and 8) and her parents. The analysis documents Zoe’s “development” as characterised by increasing agency as she tells more stories about ‘self’ launched by ‘self’ over time. Findings contribute to the literature on children’s storytelling by combining the longitudinal and the micro, yielding potentially crucial understandings of children’s storytelling competence and its development.
