I found a couple good sites for getting language books for specific ages:
www.worldlanguagebooks.com - has lots of languages to choose from and you can pick the age range of the reader which is a nice feature.

and www.theLanguageBear.com - which has a Children's book section for each language, but also has a "Novels" section for adult readers of every language. I find this site has less languages but a much better selection of books.

Hey thanks man, I started the languageBear because I love languages and this was a nice easy way to organize them all, and then figured I would pursue it a little more and build on it. I kinda like how it's shaped up, but I must be missing something cause it doesn't get a lot of traffic. It is pretty new and I'm still expanding and improving, but any suggestions are more than welcome!

Thanks again!

Might be an idea if you put the Russian titles up in Russian and the Chinese ones up in Chinese... It's weird looking at Russian in Latin letters and well... it looks unprofessional. The modern internet has unicode and there's no reason not to put stuff up in the correct form.

Oh, and then the link to Russian novels... You should separate that out into Russian novels in English - and just 'novels' which would be in Russian. Anyone searching for novels in Russian is not going to want to go through the translations and anyone looking for translations is not even going to come to your site because I think everyone would presume that everything is in the original language.

Thanks for the input. Very much appreciated! I agree, and I will certainly put some effort into that in the near future.
Thanks again.

I hate to shamefully plug, but since there have been some people that have showed an interest in the site, I thought I'd let you know that you can now add the Language Bear Flash Cards as a FaceBook application :)

Thanks for the plug! I find the cards useful. My only complaint is with the rap video about numbers. I'm still a novice, but the pronunciation of the numbers is off. It could be misleading to some.
