About Us
ONE-STOP SOURCE OF CHILDREN'S BOOKS IN FOREIGN LANGUAGES
International Children’s Books store was born out of my personal love of reading, passion for my children and grandchildren, and my own multicultural lifelong experiences.
Like myself, many people in the US speak more than one language. While outside their homes they speak English, at home they continue communicating in their mother-tongue. Often, they insist on conversing with their kids in their native tongue and on preserving their language heritage. They read books to them, tell stories and sing songs that are the same as those they were read to or sung to by their own parents and grandparents in the "old" country.
The mission of my International Children's Books store is to help parents and grandparents in preserving their native language and traditions and passing them onto their children and grandchildren. We seek to become a one-stop source for quality juvenile literature, baby books, board books, wordless books, picture books, story and chapter books and music, CDs and DVDs in any language of the world (pending availability).
Furthermore, we seek to become a one-stop resource of children's reading materials for parents, grandparents, caregivers, and educators who are interested in teaching a second language to infants or expose children to different cultures through a foreign language. Our mission is to provide the best children's literature that portrays and reflects the different backgrounds, traditions and cultures of the world.
International Children’s Books strives to help parents in fostering their children’s sensitivity to those who are different from themselves, increase children’s self- esteem and self-confidence. Our books invite children to use their imagination, expand their vocabulary and help gain a better understanding of themselves and others. Through them, kids can learn that although people may differ in their appearance, language or culture, they all experience universal feelings of love, sadness, self-worth, justice, and kindness
