Summary

Though the dynamics of immigrant family life have gained attention from scholars, little is known about the younger generation. Translating Childhoods, a unique contribution to the study of immigrant youth, brings children to the forefront by exploring the "work" they perform as language and culture brokers, and the impact of this largely unseen contribution.

Author Biography
