This book is a case study carefully detailing the French/English bilingual and biliterate development of three children in one family beginning with their births and ending in late adolescence. The author and researcher is the childrens French/English bilingual American father, who was aided by his bilingual French Canadian wife (also the childrens mother). We reared our three children in two different cultures essentially monolingual Englishspeaking Louisiana, and totally monolingual Frenchspeaking Qubec. The family spent academic years in Louisiana, and the summer months in Qubec. Our strategy was to speak only French to our son and our identical twin daughters. We artificially orchestrated and manipulated both the strategies, and to the extent possible, even the childrens environments to ensure the success of our project. Additionally, I carefully documented our progress using a variety of research tools, including audio and videotape recordings, teacher and child surveys, interviews with teachers, fieldnotes, psychological and diagnostic testing, and standardized assessment instruments.
