finding publishers of foreign language books

Post 1

Sho - employed again!

I collect books in foreign languages. to be specific, one book in as many languages as I can find.

What I would like to find is a list of the book and all the foreign language editions - I'm pretty sure someone sent me a link to one once, particularly so I could find out what it's called in the various languages.

So can anyone help me?
The book is the Very Hungry Caterpillar.

Herenna - southpaw for now

Try contacting Grant and Cutler - they specialise in foreign language books (including translations and also including books for children).
