By: Kumon Publishing NA “As the popularity of their English version workbooks continues to grow, it only seems fitting to translate the series for Spanish-speaking children,” said Vice President Brian Klingborg. “More than 300 million people around the world speak Spanish, and Kumon Publishing wishes to inform this growing demographic about how Kumon can help children achieve their full learning potential.” Kumon Workbooks are based on the Kumon Method, which breaks skills down to manageable increments in order to make learning easy and fun for children. All Kumon books are made of high-quality material in order to stand up to rough treatment from young hands. Their full-color pages, combined with exciting activities and a strong method, have been met with considerable enthusiasm to date. Debuting in March 2009, these workbooks will be available in bookstores and general retail outlets across the United States, Spain, Mexico, Guatemala, and Columbia. In the United States, major retailers such as Barnes & Noble, Borders, and Costco have already agreed to feature Kumon Publishing’s Spanish editions to their product line. Distribution arrangements in Central and South America are still being negotiated and sought. Kumon Publishing hopes these Spanish workbooks will enhance the Kumon brand and create a buzz while providing a new segment of the world’s population with quality learning materials.
