We have been struggling with this issue. We gave money to a child traveling to Brazil and she brought back books for us. That's how desperate we are! Amazon has the occasional book in Portuguese, but often they are $60 for one book. This is an area of great need for us. So far, most publishers are either carrying books for little kids in Portuguese, or just not carrying them at all.

Hi - we have a growing Portuguese speaking population and I am having trouble finding books for the library.  Has anyone had any success in this area? We are a grade 5-8 school.
Thank you!
