Be Bilingual - Practical Ideas for Multilingual Families by Annika Bourgogne

3.0

Parts of this book were reassuring for me. Especially the parts of the book that said that children will likely speak better than their parents in the languages if the parents are not natural speakers. I found some of the information about how to support minority languages useful as well. However, I found a lot of this advice to either be irrelevant or dated to me. It could be because of the age difference or location issues. It was also kind of crazy that they recommended ridiculous language learning tips such as joining the chamber of commerce or other things such as that. I guess this is because the book is aimed at upper-middle-class expats, but I still found it to be goofy. The book isn't organized in a good way and there were some errors but otherwise good information for someone who needs beginner information on this stuff.
