A bilingual parenting manual written by an author who is both a qualified translator and the mother of two bilingual children.
Bilingual Parenting debunks the negative myths that are sometimes associated with a bilingual upbringing, explores the numerous, diverse benefits, and ultimately provides the keys to achieving lasting results. Explanations regarding linguistic malleability in the brain and palate during early childhood will be of particular interest for parents who are raising or considering raising their children bilingually.
To illustrate her points, Nicky Gentil refers to the results of studies by language experts and draws on the personal experiences of countless bilingual families, including her own. As a result, the subject becomes accessible to all and the book as enjoyable to read as it is informative.
Upon reading this Guide, current and future parents of bilingual children will find themselves well-equipped to navigate the potential difficulties of bilingual parenting and confident enough to pursue it even when – as it sometimes can – the going gets tough!

In 1988, having graduated in French and German from Oxford University, Nicky Gentil moved to Paris to work as a translator. Today she translates her own books into English, initially writing them in French. Raised monolingually, British-born Gentil is herself a late bilingual while her French husband and their two children are early bilinguals.
