Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

No matter where you are in the world, what you are going through, or what you are feeling, a book can allow you to escape and get lost in something for awhile.

Books are the key to the adventure that is waiting for all types of readers.

Finding books that not only engage readers, but also allow the readers to connect with them is something that my students need. They need books with characters that look like them, act like them, and feel like them. We can all remember that one book that changed our lives. Help me give my students that same opportunity. A book is a dream you hold in your hand!
