I was introduced to Let's Read: Asia's Free Digital Library for Children today. It has digital children's books in the following languages:

Arakanese (ရခိုင်ဘာသာ)
Bahasa Indonesia
Balinese
Bengali (বাংলা)
Bisu (บีซู)
Burmese (မြန်မာ)
Central Bikol
Chin
Dari (دری)
Dhivehi
Filipino
Hiligaynon
Javanese
K'nyau (Cgau)
Kachin
Karen
Khmer (ភាសាខ្មែរ)
Korean (한국어)
Lao (ລາວ)
Minangkabau
Nepali (नेपाली)
Newari / Nepal Bhasa (नेपाल भाषा)
Sundanese
Tagalog
Tamang (तामाङ)
Tetum
Thai (ไทย)
Tharu (थारु)
Urdu (اردو)
Vietnamese (Tiếng Việt)

The books are categorized by reading level and most of the books are available in multiple languages (including English).

I know it can be hard to find reading level rated books in many of these languages, so this seems like it could be really useful for language learners of any of these languages.
