LatAm Books for Youth

The following lists consist of “selected” books for youth by Latin American creators, available in the U.S. and published in English, Spanish, or bilingual/multilingual.

Latin America is defined as the 20 countries plus Puerto Rico (U.S. territory) in which the main language is a Latin-Romance language. Indigenous cultures to these territories (pre-European colonization) might also be included under the existing country name.

The links take you to the lists in WorldCat, a catalog of thousands of library collections from around the world, provided by OCLC. In addition to gathering bibliographic information, you can also check if a library close to you owns the books.
