LOTE4Kids offers an engaging collection of audio-enhanced picture books in various reading formats, allowing children to enjoy books and learn language through storytelling. LOTE4Kids partners with native speakers from around the globe to provide accurate translations, natural fluency, and correct pronunciation. English translations accompany every story, making it a tool useful for language immersion and literacy development. The resource offers interactive tools, such as read-aloud narration and pause controls, as well as relevant, printable worksheets. These worksheets include a variety of activities, such as word searches, coloring pages, and “Spot the Difference” puzzles, all of which are great ways to enhance language skills. With over 7,800 books published in over 100 languages, kids and families will have fun reading and learning new languages together. Though it is designed for kids, this is still a great resource for adults interested in learning a new language! LOTE4Kids is accessible both on a web browser and an app for Android and Apple devices. Users may use the link on the library’s website or go directly to LOTE4kids.com. Once on the homepage for the site, search for Marion Public Library in the “Find Your Library or School” box. Once Marion Public Library is selected, users will be prompted to enter their library card number to access. This new language learning resource was made available thanks to the Racial and Cultural Equity Grant from the Marion Community Foundation.
