Gonzalez", "Jeffrey Liew "], "item_description" : "Each of the thoughtful, rigorous, clear, and compelling research studies in this text helps to transcend this divided discourse by offering much-needed pathways of understanding into the lived experiences of modern American families from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. Ultimately, by highlighting the rich, unique experiences of these families - including collective commonalities, individual differences, cultural assets, and distinctive perspectives - around becoming literate at the intersection of multiple language and cultures, this volume adds new ideas and vocabulary that can enrich and enhance both academic and popular discourse. --Annmarie Hindman, Ph.D. Professor, Applied Developmental Science and Special Education University of North Carolina at Chapel HillThis volume examines the literacy beliefs and practices of diverse Asian and Latine heritage families, who represent the largest populations of dual language learners in U.S. schools.
