The list of books we read from Indonesia is embarrassingly short. I had such a hard time finding books this week. I do have another book on the way from someone who reached out this week, so I’ll be adding that to the Picture Book List soon. In doing research, I came across this post on World Kid Lit about children’s literature in Indonesia. It is an interesting read.

If you know of any please email me, or DM me on Instagram so I can add them to my list.
