Nowadays, bilingualism is prevalent in almost every corner of the world. The United States of America which is determined as the most significant focus country for my research takes precedence over being a multilingual nation with many diverse languages of its mammoth immigrant groups. Compared to American Melting pot´, Georgia has always been a multinational country due to ethnic minorities living within its territory and remains so to this day. The book was designed to determine the value of recently implemented dual language instruction for minority children in the United States of America and its potential adoption for minority children in Georgia. Thus, educational professionals should find this book interesting as it describes a real bilingual background for introducing a new trend of dual language instruction and stresses the importance of linguistically adequate and efficient education of ethnical minority students in Georgia.
