Abstract
The results of a content analysis of Spanish-English dual-language books published during 2013-2016 showed that publishers specializing in multicultural or Latinx literature produced more books with Latinx characters in various roles than other publishers. But the format of most dual-language books, regardless of publisher, were found to privilege English and marginalize Spanish.
