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

One of my jobs as an elementary school librarian is to ensure students see themselves in books. That includes seeing someone like them writing and illustrating books.

The books in this project will help my students feel empowered and believe that anything they put their energy and effort into is possible.

Some of the books are silly, some serious, and a few in between. This collection has something for every type of reader as it includes nonfiction and fiction books alike.

This group of books was inspired by Penguin Publishing's Black Voices for #BlackHistoryMonth.
