THE THINGS KIDS SAY GROWING UP BILINGÜE A True Story of Laughter, Language, and Love
¿Hablas dos idiomas en casa? Then you already know.
Every bilingual family has that moment — when your kid negotiates in two languages, mixes them mid-sentence, or drops a philosophical question at 3 a.m. that you're completely unprepared for.
The Things Kids Say Growing Up Bilingüe is a hilarious, heartwarming collection of real conversations from a multicultural family raising two bilingual kids in the U.S. — ten years of unfiltered, laugh-out-loud moments captured exactly as they happened.
From the negotiation tactics of a 4-year-old who turns "diez minutos" into "seven"... to the 9-year-old who figures out that gracias + adiós = ¡Gracias a Dios! — these are the moments every multicultural family lives but rarely sees reflected in a book.
Inside, you'll find:
You'll recognize yourself on every page — whether you're the parent who switched to Spanish to count to ten, the kid who finished the countdown first, or the abuela who just wants to be in charge on abuela's day.
Growing Up Bilingüe is for bilingual families everywhere, for parents raising third-culture kids, and for anyone who believes that raising children between two languages is one of the greatest gifts you can give them.
"Papi, nobody needs electronics when you have books." — Becky, age 3
She was right.
Also by Ricardo Aranda Falvay: Echando Cuentos de Venezuela — a spanish children's book celebrating Venezuelan culture, heritage, and the stories we carry across borders. Perfect for the next generation of diaspora kids who deserve to see their roots on every page.
