Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! To recognize this special month, which runs from September 15 to October 15, we've put together a selection of our favorite books for children and teens starring Latina Mighty Girls! In the first section of our new blog post, we share books about real-life Latina role models throughout history, while in the second part, we feature fictional stories about Latina girls and women. We hope these empowering titles will help all kids learn more about the diverse contributions and rich cultural traditions of Hispanic Mighty Girls!
