Past studies of family language socialization often focus on children's verbal communication skills and are conducted from the parents' perspective. This book describes a child's mostly self-directed and near-simultaneous multilingual and multiliterate development from birth to age 8. The present findings thus emphasize the critical role of child agency, and they may redefine and expand on the traditional theoretical framework of family language policy.
