About Us
Hola & welcome!
We're delighted to welcome you to a place where the magic of storytelling knows no linguistic bounds!
We believe books are bridges that connect cultures & perspectives, uniting the diverse pockets of our amazing world. And biliteracy is the gift that makes those bonds even stronger.
Our Mission
Sol Book Box was created to make quality Spanish books more accessible, & reading en español more fun.
Did you know that over 54 million people speak Spanish in the United States today? That's more español than you'll find in Spain! Despite that, less than 1% of all children's books sold in the U.S. today are Spanish language. :-(
As mamás & papás striving to raise biliterate kiddos, we wanted better. More options. Easier access. Better stories!
So whether your little ones are already avid Spanish readers, exploring it as a second language, or you’re simply looking to expose them to more diverse stories & perspectives, we're here to help you ignite their imagination and make the journey simple, joyful, & lasting.
