Latino language use

[Brion van Over]

You might excerpt a chapter from "Growing Up Bilingual" 
<http://books.google.com/books?id=05qVtLmGMtYC&dq=growing+up+bilingual&pg=PP1&ots=3qIM5BQF3n&sig=hTH2_pTkuFqvlMtiVfTb7Erl3Fg&hl=en&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=1&ct=result> 
by Ana Zentella. It's an ethno-linguistic investigation into the 
experiences of immigrant families, many of whom speak only spanish, who 
have children growing up in the Bronx. Some of the chapters are heavy on 
the linguistic analysis, but others are much more ethnographic and might 
be useful.
