Helpful guide for raising bilingual and multilingual children

I was excited to find this book on Audible. I’m helping my granddaughter become bilingual and have many questions about the best way to do this. This book provides excellent information, both scientific and anecdotal, from a parent with personal experience in this area. The author has done a lot of research and has personal experience in teaching her children to be multilingual. The book is quick and easy to listen to and is full of helpful and practical information. It discusses the benefits of raising bilingual/multilingual children, addresses parents’ concerns, and explains various ways families can implement bilingual/multilingual education both at home and through online and community resources. Most helpful of all, she provides interesting and hands-on activities people can use to implement bilingual/multilingual education at home. At the end of the book she provides multiple websites for further study and resources, and a PDF with helpful information. I highly recommend this book for anybody interested in raising bilingual/multilingual children of any age.
