"Parents and teachers of bi/multilingual children who read this book have a tremendous opportunity. Through their interaction with their children, parents can establish the linguistic and conceptual foundation that will enable children to function in multiple languages throughout their lifetimes...As clearly described by Professor Oketani in this book, the conceptual and linguistic knowledge acquired in the home language transfers to the school language, especially when teachers recognize children's home language and literacy skills as a resource for learning in school." -- Jim Cummins, November 2023
