When a mother comes to pick up her child from preschool, the teacher asks her if they would like to borrow a few books that her child really enjoyed that day for the weekend. The mother seems irritated by this suggestion and says, "Nobody in our family reads English!" and then quickly ushers her child into the car. The teacher should:

a. Stop suggesting that any books go home with the child and send home workbook pages instead.
b. Seek out bilingual books and/or recordings in their first language and books about their culture.
c. Tell the mother that her and her family should learn English.
d. Follow them out to the car and insist that the books go home with them.
