[Joanne · Rating 3 out of 5]

an excellent overview of research prior too its publication date of 2010, however most research quoted was from 2006-2007. If you don't have a background in ELL / bilingual education, this is a good book to start with for the research. If you are looking for strategies and "next steps" for programs, then you will want to look elsewhere.
