Our story

About Parvi Lectores

We are a small book shop with a clear purpose – bringing carefully chosen foreign-language children's books to families.

Why foreign-language books? We believe language is best learnt when tied to a pleasant experience. Reading together in a foreign language is a quiet, gentle way to expose children to the sound and rhythm of a new language – without pressure or stress.
A small selection, more meaning Instead of a catalogue of hundreds of titles, we offer a considered selection. Every book has passed through our hands before being listed – we know what it offers, who it suits, and how it reads aloud.
For families, by parents Parvi Lectores grew out of a personal need – to find good foreign-language books for children without long searches across international shops. We want to make that selection easily available to other families too.
