Sooo helpful!,
By "claireshonz" (New York City) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Raising Bilingual Children: Parent's Guide series (Paperback)
What I loved was that the author gets that families are all different and doesn't just give a list of rules, but instead explores the underlying issues bilingual families deal with when they think they are just dealing with language. I feel much more empowered about the decisions I'm making-that I'm doing it in a thoughtful way, that I've considered the basics. This was easy-reading, too, although there's alot of research and it isn't dumbed-down.

Finally, a book on bilingual children I like!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Raising Bilingual Children: Parent's Guide series (Paperback)
This one is realistic and specifically for parents teaching all languages. It's not as preachy as some of the other more popular titles. I like the format, allowing me to skip the parts that don't apply to our situation. The positive review of Newcomer High School in San Francisco on page 139 didn't hurt. I used to volunteer there back in college. What I liked less was the quote on page 122. Who's been lurking on some of the bilingual children sites??? Oh well, I guess that's my 15 minutes of fame... |
