Today we see the rapid growth of the Latino population in the United States. Part of that phenomenal growth is that parents often speak in one language- Spanish-while their children learn in another, English. Bilingual books make it possible for parents and children to learn together. That is the reason that we publish and distribute bilingual books in English and Spanish. Reading bilingual books is one of the most effective ways to acquire transferable literacy skills. Bilingual books are a win-win situation for parents, children and schools.

We take pride in the fact that the books are well written, expertly translated and beautifully illustrated and printed. Please explore what Lectura Books has to offer. You will discover a whole new world of the best bilingual children’s books in the country.
