Lin, Simon Fraser University, Canada * This book delivers a powerful message about the benefits and challenges of classroom multilingualism, based on the Hawaiian concept of HA, with an eye toward ensuring that all students' strengths are considered to create and sustain a caring multilingual classroom community. There is so much to learn from this extraordinary work. * Christian Faltis, Texas A&M International University, USA *

There is so much to learn from this extraordinary work. * Christian Faltis, Texas A&M International University, USA * Mendoza's book weaves together a variety of sociolinguistic lenses to delve into teacher-student interactions in English-medium classrooms in Hawaii. It offers insights into how classroom translanguaging could be framed: with, as Mendoza puts it, attention to equity, criticality, and safety for all students. * Kate Seltzer, Rowan University, USA * Anna Mendoza’s book is an invitation not only to languaging but to translanguaging in a world of responsibility in the search for total well-being [...] This book sends a powerful message about the benefits, challenges and possibilities of classroom practices to foster the promotion of funds of knowledges, especially for marginalized communities with an immigrant or refugee background. * Yecid Ortega, Queen’s University Belfast, UK, Language and Education, 2024 *
