Offers support and guidance to tackle the realities of living in a bi-or multilingual family.
This essential guide for parents raising their children multilingually has proved an invaluable source of support and advice in the 20 years since its first publication. An English language teacher, independent researcher and mother of three more-or-less bilingual children, Suzanne Barron-Hauwaert brings her professional and personal experience to this realistic yet inspirational guide to the One-Parent-One-Language approach to childhood bilingualism.
The book also contains the experiences of more than 100 families from around the world, reflecting a wide range of languages and cultures. This second edition has been updated to reflect the latest research on childhood language learning and use, and provides parents with suggestions for up-to-date and accessible resources and further reading.
Suzanne Barron-Hauwaert is the mother of three more-or-less bilingual children and teaches English as a Foreign Language in Paris, France. She has published two books on bilingual families, and regularly presents her work to teachers and parents.
