Questions and statements from both the children and me fell into two different categories: those directly related to the story content that relied completely on information contained in either the pictures or the text; and those related to the story that addressed content or ideas outside of the literal text and pictures, requiring some element of inference or speculative reasoning. This second type of questions and statements, whether by me or by the children, was coded as higher-level questions and statements. Additionally, the higher-level questions fell into two distinct categories: they were either text-based questions or picture-based questions, and the coding (CQSH/T and CQSH/P) reflects this distinction.
