The book begins with a conceptual framework focusing on the intersection between the fields of early childhood education, bilingual education, and special education. It goes on to review and discuss the role of bilingualism in young children’s development and the experiences of young bilingual children with disabilities in early care and education settings, including issues of eligibility and access to care, instruction, and assessment. The book explores family experiences, teacher preparation, accountability, and policy, ending with recommendations for future research which will inform both policies and practices for the education of young bilingual children with disabilities. This timely volume provides valuable guidance for teachers, administrators, policymakers, and researchers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis critically important volume is highly overdue! Castro and Artiles have produced a rich body of work on the intersection of special education, bilingual education, and early childhood education. Theoretically and programmatically integrative, this text is essential reading for designing equitable educational approaches that consider emergent bilinguals’ unique assets and skills. Readers will appreciate learning about the developmental characteristics of an increasingly diverse population in early intervention and special education as they gain cultural and linguistic efficacy.\u003c\/p\u003e * Iliana Alanís, The University of Texas at San Antonio, USA *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe authors provide up-to-date information and critical perspectives in an integrative approach which lays the foundation for comprehensive, responsive interventions. Each chapter reflects an asset-based approach which contrasts with the long history of deficit-based views. Highly recommended for those who work with this population, but an important resource for all educators.\u003c\/p\u003e * Robert Rueda, University of Southern California, USA *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book would be particularly useful to students studying Early Childhood or teaching qualifications intending to work with children aged 0–8 years old. It would provide them with a detailed knowledge in the field of language, special educational needs and bilingualism to apply to situations that they will inevitably face within their working lives. It would also be useful to academics, teachers and scholars teaching within this area.\u003cbr\u003e Overall, this is an extremely informative text that will help many to give children the attention and encouragement they need.\u003c\/p\u003e -- Tanya Richardson * Educational Review, 2021 *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eContributors\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 1.
