LOTE4Kids is an online resource that features children’s picture books in both read-along and read-to-me formats in English and over 100 accompanying languages. LOTE stands for Languages Other Than English and, as the name implies, this tool is an excellent way to support multi-lingual families, students learning a new language in school, or connecting to your family’s ancestral language.
With over a thousand stories and related activity sheets like coloring pages and word searches, LOTE4Kids is sure to have something to explore with your little one today! These stories are accessible with your library card and on a computer or through the LOTE4Kids free (and ad-free!) app.
If you’re participating in our Summer Reading Program this June-July, don’t forget to keep track of how much time you spend reading these online picture books; they count towards your Summer Reading Program log!
