Spanish Parents and kids: Spanish books and public libraries

    Hi all, I am wondering if anyone has come across a great way to read more Spanish books to their kids. I bring some Spanish books from Spain on each visit, but with most of the books I purchase through the year, plus the DLR public libraries ones, being in English the discrepancy is…. high 🤣 I know there are some children's books in Spanish in the libraries and I have recently discovered the wonderful world of the interlibrary service, so even if only a couple of them seem to be available at my local library I was thinking I can request them from other libraries. Only problem is that I don't know which titles they have, and I can't filter by Spanish language. Does anyone know of any of the titles? Or knows of a better way to find them?

    I would be happy to start a list and add my local library ones too, if anyone has an interest.

    Alternatively, has anyone made use of the cervantes library for small kids? Is a bit out of the way and not free, but if it's worth the trip I could also do that.

    Another approach to this: if anyone is in Dublin 18 or nearby and wants to do a book swap to expand the library at home on a rotation basis, or something like that, could be interesting too :)
