Goodbye, September! Here are the books we recommended in the first half of Hispanic Heritage Month. Have you read any books by Hispanic and/or Latinx authors lately?
Let's wrap up September with a classic: Sandra Cisneros's The House on Mango Street. Check out this article about its lasting impact: npr.org/templates/story/stor…

We've talked to several students who love the beautiful love story The Radius of Us by @MarieFMarquardt. Read an excerpt here: us.macmillan.com/excerpt?isb…

Looking for something a little easier? A book you can read with a younger sibling? Efrén Divided by @Author_Cisneros is a great book that middle schoolers and older will love! I couldn't find an excerpt for this one (sorry!) so you'll just have to take my word for it.
Looking for a Latinx dystopia? Check out We Set the Dark on Fire by @tehlorkay. Read an excerpt here: pastemagazine.com/books/youn…
