In the United States, children from Asian and Latinx immigrant backgrounds stand as the largest cohort of dual language learners in schools, a testament to the rich diversity and dynamism of our nation. While substantial research has illuminated the pivotal roles of parenting and the home literacy environment in shaping children's literacy development, there has been a relative lack of attention given to immigrant families. The chapters within this book are thoughtfully crafted to address this gap, seeking to unravel the profound impact of culture and immigrant experiences on children's literacy learning and growth. By exploring the unique home environments and parental involvement in literacy-related activities in both English and the parents' native language, this book offers valuable insights into the intricate dynamics that shape children's literacy development within immigrant families.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the Hispanic\/Latinx and Asian American populations continue to flourish in the US, this book serves as a timely and pressing call for school systems and child and family professionals to be cognizant of the challenges and opportunities that arise in this realm. It implores them to embrace culturally responsive approaches, ensuring that every child, regardless of their background, has access to high-quality literacy education that fosters their full potential and equips them with the tools they need for success in an ever-evolving world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 488g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 x 148 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783031144691\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2023\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44102734643450,"sku":"9783031144691","price":128.09,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1673620058452_book.jpg?v=1674085942","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/family-literacy-practices-in-asian-and-latinx-families-educational-and-cultural-considerations-9783031144691","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
