OmniLibros.com

OmniLibros is an annotated bibliography to help teachers, librarians,  reading resource staff, and parents select and use recently (since 2010) published English-language tradebooks that promote understanding across global cultures. For young readers looking for good international reads, it may spark an exploration of new worlds. The annotated books have been translated into English; published in English outside of the US; or published in the US, but set in another country.

We seek books that… • introduce American readers to outstanding authors and illustrators from other countries. • are accessible to American readers. • have received international awards. • possess literary and artistic merit.   • contain thought-provoking content that invites reflection and response, invokes curiosity, and inspires

creative imagination. • present world people and cultures in a manner that is worthy and up-to-date.

We, at the Carthage College Center for Children’s Literature located in the Hedberg Library, hope that those personally and professionally involved with young people and books will find this annotated bibliography valuable and easy to use.
