Despite all of this, students often do not have functioning textbooks. One of the reasons for this is that textbooks are scarce, so students share them or go without (Piper and Miksic 2011 32, Commeyras and Inyega 268, Lee and Zuilkowski 120, Dubeck et al. 59, Baleeta and Islei 65 [swap some Kenya citations for things from other countries]) Even when books exist, they may not address multilingual literacy and academic skills, leaving teachers to figure this out on their own (Dubeck et al. 63).
