An English Language Area for Children at the Taipei Main Library
On the B2 level of the Taipei Main Library is The Small World foreign language library for children. There's books on a variety of subjects for kids, and for all ages. The majority of books are in English, but there's also some in Spanish, German, French, and Japanese. In the family reading room, there's giant size books, which can be fun to read to little kids ... however, they are all a bit worn and well used.
