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

Every year, the Young Adult book market is flooded with exciting new titles and authors, but it takes a robust library budget to keep up with the demand.

This list includes some of the most requested titles from our students here at YVHS.

They are always so excited when we have something on the shelf that they heard about on TikTok (#booktok)! I would love to supply them with as much new reading material as possible. Please help us keep up with the newest and most inclusive in teen fiction!
