Is anybody aware of a book or article on the cognitive benefits of language learning/bilingualism, language and the brain, etc. that would be suitable for a fifth grader? The student is interested in how the brain works.<br>
Thank you,<br>

"Polyglottism is a very early characteristic of human societies, and<br>
monolingualism a cultural limitation. It is doubtful whether any community<br>
or any language has existed in isolation from other communities or<br>
languages *. . . *If there is one thing we learn from a historical study of<br>
languages in contact it is that the languages which appear to contribute<br>
most and survive longest *. . . *are usually supported and reinforced by<br>
powerful institutions, of which the schools *. . . *are among the most<br>
influential" (Lewis 1976: 150, 199).<br>

Dear Ingrid,<br>
<br>
I believe that because of its format and style, The Bilingual Edge<br>
co-authored by Kendall King might fit the bill. Take a look and see what you<br>
think.<br>
