Celebrate Bilingual Children During October

During the month of October, we observe Celebrate the Bilingual Child Month, and continue to acknowledge National Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15-October 15), when we recognize the historical and cultural contributions of Americans of Spanish, Mexican, Caribbean and Central and South American descent.  

Looking for books to help you celebrate? In addition to print titles, the CML has hundreds of relevant K-8 fiction and non-fiction bilingual e-books and those that honor Hispanic heritage.


Through our subscription to TeachingBooks, you can find teaching ideas and materials for hundreds of books by scanning the QR codes in the library or visiting the resources here, here and here.
