"""Monica Olivera's delightful new book for young people, Latin Americans in History: Five Inspiring Latinas and Latinos You Should Know offers an exciting window into the lives of remarkable Latinx figures--leaders, athletes, activists, artists, and more! Children will learn from Olivera's lively prose introducing individuals who have contributed to the rich and diverse history, politics, and culture of the Américas--and the world! In addition to the well-researched individual biographies and inspiring quotes in the subject's own words, Kristina Rodriguez's compelling illustrations will bring these figures to life for children."" --Acclaimed children's author, Dr. Monica Brown ""Latin Americans in History needs to be in classrooms and home libraries nationwide. Mónica Oliviera has been able to do more than introduce young readers to Latina and Latino changemakers--she has also given us information about their lives that make them both inspiring and relatable. It's great that the author included people from throughout Latin America, showing the richness that our history and culture offers."" --Maceo Cabrera Estévez, Founder of Booklandia"
