Spanish Language Infused Picture Books

The following is a link to a Shelfari group site that I created a few years ago that lists Spanish Language Infused Picture Books.  Many of these books are available at your library and if not can be borrowed from a library that has them.  They are a wonderful resource to introduce Spanish terminology to children interested in the language or for bilingual (Spanish/English) children who will delight in seeing their language scattered throughout the stories.

The following is a defines these types of book on the groups page:

"This group focuses on Spanish Language Infused Picture Books which are multicultural picture books where English is the primary written language with a smattering of Spanish words and phrases that are interwoven within the text of the story, adding significant literary effect and enhancing the story’s cultural surroundings.

These books are wonderful on many levels. They are great as a language learning tool. Many are terrific to use for storytimes and they introduce kids (& adults too) the cultural experiences and backgrounds that many new and settled Latino/Hispanic immigrants face today."
