United Through Reading
Where books and culture come alive!
Join our kick off celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month by learning about Mexico's official Independence day, and find out what other countries celebrate their Independence day in September. We will read En Mexico by Judith Mazzeo, take video tours of Mexico, practice Mexican paper cutting, and sample snacks from several Latin countries! Don't forget to check one of our many books about Mexico and other Latin countries and take one home!
