In this follow-up to Growing up with Three Languages: Birth to Eleven, Xiao-lei Wang offers a unique insight into the dynamics of a multilingual family. She combines practical, evidence-based advice with rich detail from observations of her own family to offer support and inspiration on an aspect of multilingual parenting that has received comparatively little attention. By placing language within the wider context of teenagers' cognitive and social development, this book will enable parents everywhere to help and guide their children through the next step in their multilingual journey UR - https://doi.org/10.21832/9781783094493 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781783094493 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781783094493/original ER -
