[aisle] Mongolian language books?

[Karen Doyle]

I had a Mongolian student 2 years ago (3rd grade).  I couldn’t find
anything, but her English was good enough that she was reading in English.

The Oak Park Public Library has a pretty extensive Kid’s World Language
section at Main, as well as a Multicultural Collection at the Dole branch.
While they don’t have Mongolian books, they  might be able to point you in
the right direction.  Jenna Friebel would be the best contact:
Jfriebel at oppl.org.

Good Luck!
