This fascinating study shows how young children work simultaneously in two languages to decode unfamiliar text, negotiate meaning and explore the differences between their languages. Set in the context of current research and practice in relation to multiliteracy, personal and learner identity, and issues in translation, the book explores dual language books and their use since the 1980s.
Developed from action research work by primary teachers, the book follows seven children aged 6 to 10 as they use dual language storybooks to learn to read in Albanian, Urdu, Turkish, French and Gujerati, with the help of their mothers or their friends.
Teachers, parents and researchers will find the book invaluable. It explores the nature and benefits of biliteracy and offers ideas and strategies for teaching young children languages, whether by developing their bilingualism or teaching them new ones.

With a lucid writing style, a clear structure, well-selected commentary and observation, and a persuasive overall argument this book promises to inform not only teachers' use of dual language books and resources for some years to come but also their appreciation of how such materials can fit into a broader strategy of education for a multilingual society. --Educational Review
...a stimulating and informative book for teachers, parents and researchers alike ... [this is] a significant and valuable contribution to the field of multi-literacy. --NALDIC Quarterly
