Reviews

In a political moment, where so much seems impossible and so many seem bent on using our differences to divide, Lessons from a Dual Language Bilingual School is a balm. Through rich narrative, scholarly reflections, and dynamic collaboration, this book offers a roadmap of possibilities not just for those interested in bilingual education, but for all interested in creating and maintaining schools that not only teach but care for communities. * R. L'Heureux Lewis-McCoy, New York University, USA * This decade of rich reflections and experiences serves as a powerful lesson and inspiration for anyone interested in developing equitable dual language bilingual programs. This volume emerges from una comunidad comprometida and guides readers on an incredible and unique journey, making it an indispensable resource for pre- and in-service teachers and leaders. * Juan A. Freire, Brigham Young University, USA *
