Recensioner i media

‘Edwards, Compton-Lilly, and Li curate a rich and wide array of studies featuring both national and transnational contexts. The research provides textured and insightful accounts of the literate lives and learning of families, ones which are too often invisible in formal schooling settings. The Handbook powerfully honors robust linguistic and cultural pluralism, challenging deficit ideologies of communities while charting a vision that can help us build mutual and just educational partnerships. The Handbook of Literacy in Families and Communities will be indispensable reading for years to come.'
