By Terry Piper

How do children learning English as a second language become bilingual?
How do children's individual learning styles affect the task of learning English? Particularly when they have special needs?

Her practical insights into the language-learning process have made this book a popular resource that provides invaluable encouragement and guidance for parents, classroom teachers who wish to know more about second-language learning, and experienced ESL teachers alike.
