Multicultural Literature for Latino Bilingual Children: Their Words, Their Worlds
While there are several volumes that fall into the category of children's literature, there appears to be relatively few that explore the needs of bilingual learners and the linguistic and sociocultural context of Latino children's literature. This second edition continues to make a needed contribution by addressing the social, cultural, academic, and linguistic needs of bilingual learners who are still underserved through current school practices. In addition, this volume presents a balance of theory, research, and practice. It is our challenge, to make sure that we can speak to authentic multicultural Latino literature and to ensure its availability for all students. The book also aims to conceptualize the different forms of social knowledge that can serve as cultural resources for acquiring knowledge and transforming self and identity. Multicultural Literature for Latino Bilingual Children 2nd Edition will create a heightened awareness of the cultural and linguistic capital held by the Latino community, to increase Latino students' social capital through the design of critical pedagogical practices for Latino students, and for the formulation of a new perspective, that of Latino multicultural literature for children.
