me+mi publishing is an independent publisher dedicated to creating the highest quality books available in two or more languages for infants and toddlers. Reading is a critical element of success in life, and linguists generally agree that bilingual programs provide real educational benefits. We believe that by exposing dual language literature to children at the earliest stages, they will enter the education system not only well prepared with strong reading skills, but with a unique advantage as well. As a result learning becomes a positive life experience for the rest of their lives.Creators of Award-Winning Dual language BooksThe English-Spanish Foundations Series is a prized group of picture books specially designed to reflect the joy, spontaneity, and energy of infants and toddlers. These bright, colorful and engaging books were created by the principals of me+mi publishing, Gladys Rosa-Mendoza and Mark Wesley, award-winning publishers and the parents of bilingual children, who saw a need for high quality dual language books. They have been creating books for major US publishers for over 20 years and have been honored with numerous awards for design and development of educational books.Our Guiding Principles• We believe that every child should be read to from birth.• We believe every child should be taught at least two languages.• We strive to surpass each customer's expectations.• We will only produce the highest quality products.Our Visionme+mi publishing will be a company that is recognized for producing the finest dual language products that allow children to function at a high level equally well in English and Spanish.Awardsme+mi publishing has received the following literary awards:• Benjamin Franklin Award• Chicago Book Clinic Book and Media Show• Latino Literary Hall of Fame Mariposa Award• Latino Literary Hall of Fame• Latino Literary Hall of Fame Honorable Mention• Writer’s Digest Certificate of MeritOther Books in the English • Spanish Foundation Series include:• Slipcased Set/Colección en estuche• The Alphabet/El alfabeto (Book #1• Numbers 1 2 3/Los números 1 2 3 (Book #2)• Colors and Shapes/Los colores y las figures (Book #3)• My Family and I/Mi familia y yo (Book #4)• Opposites/Opuestos (Book #5)• The Weather/El tiempo (Book #6)• What time is it?/¿Qué hora es?
