This collection comprises cross-linguistic research on narrative 
development in various multilingual settings in the world. In a state of

the art introduction the editors present a summary of conducted research
on 
bilingual narrative development. Three main sections each with a
different 
geographical focus follow this: bilingual narrative construction in 
Northern Europe; bilingual narrative development in Western Europe; and 
bilingual narrative development outside of Europe. Finally the volume 
closes with a cross-linguistic perspective on narrative development in 
multilingual contexts by Ruth Berman.
