It’s almost time for Hispanic Heritage Month, celebrated each year from September 15 – October 15. Latino and Latina students are highly underrepresented in children’s literature. It is especially important to have a collection of Latine books that represents the diversity of languages, cultures, ethnicities, and nationalities within the larger Latine community.

We’ve gathered a few of our favorite books by Latine creators to help you #shakeupyourshelves this month and every month!
