Reviews

This volume is a great source of fascinating ideas for teachers, researchers and other professionals working with EAL children and young people. It is about creating welcoming learning environments by bringing together theoretical insights, transformative practices and artistic content. The ideas are easily adaptable and will definitely inspire future readers to create their own activities and welcoming environments. * Annamaria Pinter, University of Warwick, UK * This inspiring research-to-practice book brings together multiple voices from the field of multilingual research and teaching. It presents readers with creative, innovative, and empowering endeavours which honour multilingualism and multilingual identities. Arts-based approaches are foregrounded as examples of critical socio-cultural pedagogies that facilitate the intentional disruption of monolingual classroom norms. There is something for everyone in here. * Naomi Flynn, University of Reading, UK *
