Bravo to Ko-Yin Sung and Hsiao-Mei Tsai for a book that gives us both a broad analysis of Utahs Chinese One-Way Immersion programs and the larger context in which they are situated, and an in-depth and fascinating look at Chinese dual language immersion from several important angles. This book makes an important contribution to our understanding of a still very much under-researched phenomenon that is growing in the US, in both importance and numbers. * Deborah K. Palmer, University of Colorado Boulder, USA * With the ever-increasing heritage language representation in the US, Sung and Tsai present the unique challenges and benefits of implementing an English-Chinese dual language program. Their comprehensive book, building on the English-Spanish dual language scholarship, serves to extend the field and is an outstanding resource for all bilingual educators. * Belinda Bustos Flores, University of Texas at San Antonio, USA * The book provides great insights into multiple aspects of the Chinese-English DLI programs in Utah through a series of empirical studies. One interesting contribution of this book is its study on students' translanguaging practices in Chinese-English DLI classrooms. -- Sunny Man Chu Lau, Bishop's University, Canada and Zhongfeng Tian, Boston College, USA * Journal of Immersion and Content-Based Language Education 8:1 *
