Picture Books Around the World

SCPL Kids' Page

Do you want to see the world? You can travel to distant lands from the comfort of your favorite armchair by reading the picture books listed on our Picture Books Around the World Book List. Reading books written by foreign authors and set in foreign countries is a great way to learn about other cultures and gain an understanding of how different the experience of childhood can be in other parts of the world.

You are Never Too Young for a Library Card

SCPL Kids' Page

The Santa Cruz Public Libraries have removed the age requirement for receiving a library card. A child of ANY age can now have a little blue card to check out books, movies, and recorded stories….yes, even toddlers! Plan on making a holiday visit to the Library soon to surprise the little one in your family.
