The Year of Reading Challenge is celebrating National Hispanic Heritage Month in September! Read any book by an author of Hispanic heritage and log it as an Activity Badge to be entered into the monthly drawing for a gift card. Below is a list compiled by staff using the NoveList database, which you can also use here. The book you read to complete the Activity doesn’t have to come from this list, though. These are just some suggestions in case you need help picking a book.
Have you not signed up yet for The Year of Reading Challenge? It’s never too late! Read more about the challenge here. Sign up in Beanstack to get started. And remember to log your monthly theme book as an Activity Badge to be considered for the drawing!
