World of Reading CEO, Cindy Tracy, could not find the books she wanted for her children. So, in 1989, she started sourcing and selling quality foreign language and ESL books for parents, teachers, and others. Today, Ms. Tracy owns World of Reading, one of the best online bookstores in the USA, and is a familiar and welcome presence at conferences and trade shows all across America. World of Reading also offers kids books online as well as books in foreign languages.
Our collections include resources to study and learn the most popular languages, and then the not-so-popular ones, too. We cover all bases with the standout European languages like French, German, Russian, and, of course, English, as well as Asian languages including Chinese, Arabic, Hindi, Japanese, Thai, and many others. You’ll also find foreign language books and games for American ASL, Pashto, Maltese, Greek, and Hebrew. Don't see enough books in the language you want? Looking for a specific translation of a popular book in English? Send an email to polyglot@wor.com - we love special requests!
You can browse books for language learning that cover all these popular choices and more.

As the trusted online bookstore for polyglots and aspiring multilingualists across the globe, our mission is to keep you supplied with the best games, readers, and books for your language-learning goals. This means offering you exclusive access to the latest launches and giving you your pick of all major publications.
Learning another language means you get to be part of our community of polyglots and be among the first to learn about new arrivals and recent releases. Since we aren’t employed by one publisher, we’re not limited in our collection. This means you get to choose from a wide selection of language resources that suit your specific needs.
World of Reading has consistently supported our Dual Language Immersion programs in five languages for many years. Cindy’s vast knowledge of language resources and fantastic selection of materials helped our DLI programs to expand, even during the pandemic. Even if Cindy doesn’t currently have something in her inventory, she will work with international publishers to procure those materials for districts. Her customer service is beyond compare, which is why we continue to do business with her every year. Our DLI programs would not be as successful as they are without Cindy and World of Reading.
A true gem for finding quality and unique foreign language products that are student approved.
You always get the most remarkable service from World of Reading. Orders come faster than you think possible. Also, if you are not sure exactly what you want, Cindy will talk to you and give you wonderful advice. Her knowledge is encyclopedic! This company is the very best source for materials for foreign language teachers. She is a pleasure to order from.
I highly recommend World of Reading, not only for its wide variety of products, but especially for its personalized service. Ms. Tracy is very knowledgeable about all the products and is willing to spend the time to match the product to the need.
