Did you know that not only do we have English and Spanish books, but we also have a selection of other world languages in the Children's Room? This includes Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Tagalog, Somali, and Vietnamese. The Juvenile World Languages books are located in the last set of shelves parallel with the Picture Books, across from the Early Readers, just behind the Parenting section. We have Board Books, Picture Books, Non-Fiction, Early Readers, and chapter books all shelved within each language area. Most of the books are geared for younger readers, but there are some longer popular chapter books translated from English such as Harry Potter, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, and Percy Jackson in some of the languages. Some of the books are bilingual, good for native speakers of the respective languages to learn English, but also good for native English speakers to learn other languages.
I always welcome purchase suggestions for the Juvenile World Languages collection, so if you speak any of these languages and know of any titles you would like us to own, please let me know! I'll do my best to purchase them for our collection.
