The book edited by Rhonda Oliver and Bich Nguyen is a very welcome and timely contribution to our understanding of the challenges involved in teaching young second language learners in different classroom contexts. Besides a thorough description of each of those contexts, the reader will find focus questions and case studies that will help him/her navigate through the complexities of the different settings. The contributors provide pedagogical strategies and approaches to teach young learners, which will surely be of use to practitioners worldwide. I highly recommend this book. Maria del Pilar Garcia Mayo, University of the Basque Country UPV/EHU The book provides an ideal introduction to the wider field of language education for readers, especially in Australian settings, who have an interest in teaching language to young learners and who need to be prepared to adapt to the diverse, and often unpredictable, circumstances in which this may take place. It brings together eleven authors who enable an unusually comprehensive treatment to be given to the many different, but related, ways in which language education of young people may take place. Ian Malcolm, Emeritus Professor, School of Arts and Humanities, Edith Cowan University
