In this timely work, Kwon offers a valuable educational resource for practitioners and researchers alike, providing suggestions, based upon her ethnographic research, that can be used to support successful teaching and learning of transnational, multilingual learners. Within her work, Kwon aims to transcend the traditional boundaries of language and literacy practices to position immigrant children as experts. As such, the text encourages individuals that work with these learners to honor their identities and unique talents as a foundation for their academic growth and development.
