Below are award-winning bilingual books published by Lectura Books for The Latino Family Literacy Project™. Parents who are Spanish-speakers and English-speakers enjoy these bilingual books with their children because these stories are culturally relevant and meaningful. And that means that they have so much more to talk about when they read them with their children. These books are in our Parent & Family Engagement Programs and our focus is to help parents learn to read and discuss stories for comprehension, vocabulary development in Spanish and/or English and ESL. We’ve got research to share that our programs really work!
