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.
Thank you,

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

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