Reviews

Garcia and Kleyn's text portrays a collaborative project on educating bilingual students. The core of the volume demonstrates how translanguaging is put into practice in actual classroom settings. Applying a transformative action research design in several case studies, the authors show how the concept of translanguaging can transform theory, policy, and practice of education in general and bilingual education in particular. -- TESOL QUARTERLY Vol. 51, No. 4, December 2017
