This study aims to explore narrative development in children living in Taiwan and Mainland China and to examine if children's narrative performance differs across genres. The 38 three-year-olds were revisited six times between 23-MAY-2006 and 26-MAY-2008. The first graders were visited on 02-JAN-2007 and again on 08-NOV-2007. All children were asked to tell fantasy narratives, personally experienced stories, scripts and frog stories (Mayer, ) during interviews. The whole process of interviews were audio and video recorded. Children’s narratives were transcribed and coded using CHAT.
