LatinX/Hispanic Heritage Month: In honor of LatinX Heritage Month, check out the books about LatinX characters and by LatinX authors on display in the Media Center. There is also a Collection in Destiny Discover that focuses on the Media Center books that celebrate the histories, cultures, and contributions of Americans whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central and South America. Today’s featured books are by Elizabeth Acevedo, a Dominican-American poet and author. In September 2022, the Poetry Foundation named her the year’s Young People’s Poet Laureate. Acevedo is the author of the young adult novels The Poet X, With the Fire on High, and Clap When You Land.
