Have you discovered Barefoot Books yet? We’re big fans. Barefoot Books is a multicultural publisher of childrens’ books, offering timeless stories from around the world with stunning illustrations for kids of all ages. Their books give children the opportunity to explore other cultures, our planet, and themselves. These particular titles are ones we like, given our heart for China—Lin Yi’s Lantern, We’re Riding on a Caravan, Stories From the Silk Road, and Little Leap Forward. Check them out. I’ve heard great things about The Barefoot Books World Atlas too that actually has an app that goes along with it. Hoping to get our hands on that one—we have and like all the others. It would be a good little gift to us while Daddy’s in China this month, don’t you think?
My friend, Nicole Renee, just opened up shop to be a reseller for Barefoot Books and is partnering with us this month to Build the Nest, donating 10% of her May sales to The Sparrow Fund. AND, she’s giving away a $25 gift certificate here on the blog so that you can start your own Barefoot Books collection.
Head on over to her website to check out all of the great books there. And, as an added bonus, use the special code TWENTY13 for a one-time 20% off discount.
We love books and read often. I also love the Sparrow Fund – wonderful cause!
What a great giveaway! I like The Adventures of Odysseus with the CD. My kids love audio books.
I have never heard of these books but will be checking them out! Awesome contest!
Lin Yi’s Lantern has been on my wish-list for a long, long time! I did not know it was a Barefoot Book–ooo, a whole new world has opened up! Thanks for the give-away and the discount. :-) Blessings, Valerie
Oh, I love barefoot books! One of my favorites is the ‘my granny went to market, to buy a flying carpet…” I think I missed (again) the leadup to your build the nest month. Can ST still participate?
I am so excited to start my collection for my future SN daughter from China!! These books are wonderful!!!
I love to gaze at the stars so “Star Seeker” appealed to me right away!
I love books of all kinds. But Stories from the Silk Road looks particularly interesting to me – when we saw the exhibit in the city, I was captivated and I’d love to have it to look at here at home too!

The Barefoot Books Stories From The Opera. I have bought a couple of barefoot books before and this book always seems sold out. I did not know that individuals sold their books too.
Emi, yes it’s a really fun opportunity and I so enjoy it! And actually, when you buy through the website, you are assigned to an ambassador/reseller. If you have any questions about any of the other books, please let me know – I’d be happy to help!
