Book List for Spanish Speaking Children

By popular demand, I am posting this list for you. I have received too many e-mails to count of requests for where & which books to purchase for our Spanish-speaking sponsor children. Here are some time-tested great books that you can purchase on Amazon.com (or other places, but I have found that Amazon has the best prices). Usually, you can get a 4 books for the price of 3 deal, so purchase them 4 at a time. Also, if you order over $25, the shipping is free (just make sure to check off "super-saver shipping"). All you have to do with this list is copy the Spanish title and paste it in to the search box on Amazon, and it will get you right to the book you are looking for. Now, this is just the BEGINNING of the list, so check back at this post for tons more great books!!:
