Focusing on bilingual identity development, this book introduces the Bilingual Identity Negotiation Framework, which encompasses sociocultural connection, investment, and interaction. It presents the individual stories of seven bilingual children from an Australian primary school, illustrating how their identities are shaped by their home and school languages. The framework not only builds on existing theories but also emphasizes the importance of collaboration across research and education sectors related to language learning. It offers a valuable model for examining bilingual identity in various contexts.
