"I really appreciate the authors' integrative approach to the study and understanding of
Latinx children and adolescents growing up in the U.S. In here, the authors review
central developmental concepts (i.e., self-concept, peer relations, parenting practices)
by centering the Latinx experience from a normative approach, which is a breath of
fresh air in the current developmental literature. The proposal moves between the
micro and the macro context and factors that contribute to the multiple developmental
trajectories that vary based on children's and adolescents' intersectional identities." --Lucia Alcala, California State University at Fullerton

"The overall approach is sound. The text moves from setting up theory on development
and research approaches to understanding development. Then, moves from the outside
(macro-level) to the inside (micro-level) context that encircle a child's development." --Krista Perreira, University of North Carolina

"The approach is innovative, holistic, and comprehensive. The authors have identified a
gap in the literature and a real need to have culturally relevant textbooks in this field
that focus on Latinx development through a transdisciplinary framework and a cultural
lens to examine the intersection of ethnicity, race, and culture on development." --Amanda Quintero, California State University at Channel Islands
