Frequently Asked Questions
Which children's books are suitable for babies and toddlers?
For babies from 0 months, soft cloth books and touch-and-feel books with contrast images are recommended, for example from Ravensburger ministeps or Coppenrath. For toddlers from 1 year, first picture books and sturdy board books with simple stories and large pictures are suitable. Look for robust material that can withstand the urge to explore.
Are there non-fiction books that are also suitable for beginners with no prior knowledge?
Yes, many non-fiction books are specifically aimed at beginners. Particularly visually designed works from DK (Dorling Kindersley) or easy-to-understand guides from PONS on languages, nature, and technology allow easy access to new topics and convey knowledge in an entertaining way.
How do I find the right book as a gift?
Consider which age group and interests the gift should be suitable for. Classic children's books, exciting non-fiction books, or a personally selected product catalog related to the recipient's hobby are popular options. At emparo you will find a wide selection suitable for birthdays, Christmas, and many other occasions.
Are the offered product catalogs paid or free?
In this category, product catalogs are offered as physical copies for purchase. These are high-quality, up-to-date catalogs from brands such as Schwab, Heine, and Weka, containing detailed product information, images, and ordering options – a practical source of inspiration for private households and businesses.
How do I store books and catalogs properly so that they stay beautiful for a long time?
Books and catalogs should be stored upright on shelves with enough space so that the pages do not warp. Avoid direct sunlight and high humidity to prevent discoloration and foxing. For frequent use, bookends and gentle bookmarks help.
Which accessories can make using books and catalogs easier in the office?
Useful accessories include bookends, storage boxes for catalogs, writable index tabs, reading lamps, and ergonomic reading aids. For professional use, revolving stands or upright collectors are ideal, allowing quick access to current issues.
Which publishers stand for particularly high-quality children's books?
Ravensburger, Coppenrath, and Carlsen are among the leading providers of high-quality children's books. They value durable materials, age-appropriate stories, and appealing illustrations. Their books are often awarded recommendation seals such as that of the Stiftung Lesen and meet high safety standards.
Do certain product catalogs also offer a digital version?
Some providers also offer digital catalogs or PDF versions, which can often be downloaded from the brands' websites. However, the printed catalogs available for order here generally do not include direct digital access. For current digital versions, it is worth visiting the manufacturer's website.
