Vietnamese children's books have officially joined the shelves of Muntpunt Library in Brussels, marking a meaningful step in promoting the mother tongue among Vietnamese families in Belgium. Gifted by the General Association of Vietnamese in Belgium (UGVB), the Vietnamese-language book collection features folktales such as The Hundred-Knot Bamboo Tree, along with poetry and picture books aimed at children aged under 7. Nguyen Chung Thuy, head of the UGVB's Culture and Society Committee, said the initiative aims to build a “Vietnamese corner” where children can read, recite poetry, play traditional games and use their mother tongue with ease and joy.
