This article reports on the perspectives of two children, firstly in their preschool and then in the first formal year of school. Digital storytelling was used as the main data collection method to capture the voices of the children as they annotate images and describe their chosen literacy events in each setting. An important finding revealed in this article (and the larger study within which the paper sits) is that teachers need to better understand the literacy practices of children in preschool settings so they can be better equipped to support them as they transition to their first year of formal schooling.
