This book investigates how bilingualism affects children's
language, cognitive and narrative abilities. The data sample
derives from 209 8-12 years old bilingual children, in three
different targeted languages (Greek-English, Greek-German,
Greek-Albanian) along with 100 monolingual Greek children. The
children completed baseline and experimental tasks measuring their
vocabulary, grammar, cognitive skills, and narrative production
abilities. The outcome of this work reveals that learning to read
and write in two languages is beneficial for the development of
language and cognitive skills. A strong case can be made to the
growing bilingual communities in Germany and beyond to provide
literacy training in both languages within mainstream schools,
afternoon classes outside of the curriculum or in community
schools.
