La Bloga: International Children’s Digital Library

René Colato Laínez

Last week, I wrote about lookybook.com and the wonderful books that you can read on this site just by clicking your mouse. I noticed that they don't have books in Spanish or bilingual format.
My author friend Amada Irma Pérez introduced me to www.childrenslibrary.org . This website has books in more than 40 languages, including Spanish and Quechua. Children around the world are reading and leaving comments in many languages.

This is their mission:
The mission of the International Children’s Digital Library Foundation is to excite and inspire the world's children to become members of the global community – children who understand the value of tolerance and respect for diverse cultures, languages and ideas -- by making the best in children's literature available online.
