Books del Sur curates Latin America Spanish-language literature to support dual language curriculum.

Collection: Supporting Dual Language Learners with a New Migration Collection

At Books del Sur, we've always seen ourselves as more than just a bookstore—we're partners with schools and districts, dedicated to supporting educators and students. In these uncertain times, we're focusing on what we do best: providing high-quality, authentic Spanish literature that meets the curricular and social-emotional needs of U.S. dual language programs.

That's why we're proud to announce our new Migration Collection, a carefully curated selection of dual-language books that address the complex topic of migration. This collection explores the diverse reasons why people (and sometimes, even personified animals!) move across borders.

We know that migration is a particularly relevant issue for dual language learners, many of whom are migrants themselves. Our new collection provides culturally relevant resources that resonate with their experiences.

Highlights of the Migration Collection

Our collection features powerful titles like "Otro Pais," a poignant story about the imaginary country where migrant children's memories reside, and "Un violin migrante," a heartwarming tale of a family's journey and the enduring power of music. These books, and others in the collection, offer a unique opportunity to:

  • Foster empathy and understanding: By exploring diverse immigrant narratives, students can develop a deeper understanding of the challenges and triumphs faced by immigrant communities.
  • Promote inclusivity: Our books showcase the richness and diversity of immigrant cultures, helping to create a more welcoming and inclusive learning environment for all students.
  • Enhance language development: Dual language texts provide opportunities for students to strengthen their bilingualism and biliteracy skills.
  • Facilitate meaningful discussions: These books can serve as springboards for important conversations about identity, belonging, and social justice.

A Powerful Tool for Educators

We believe that these books can be powerful tools for educators in navigating current events surrounding immigration. They can help students process complex emotions, develop critical thinking skills, and become informed and engaged citizens.

Explore the Collection

We invite you to explore our Migration Collection and discover how these books can support your dual language learners and enrich your classrooms and students' lives.

To make ordering easy, we've created a linked order form where you can easily identify the books you'd like to order. We encourage you to consider incorporating these books into classroom activities, checking them out to teachers, and sharing the list with colleagues.

Now, more than ever, it's crucial to connect with our communities with love, open arms, and empathy. We'd love to hear how you're doing that and how we can best support you.
