YALSA and REFORMA developed a reading list with titles featuring teens with Latino/a backgrounds, as well as a reading list of popular titles available in Spanish. Through a grant from the Dollar General Literacy Foundation, we created a brochure called Lee por el gusto de leer, which you can download at http://www.ala.org/yalsa/professionaltools/handouts#teenreading.
Note: The term Latinx is the gender-neutral alternative to Latino, Latina, or Latin@. For a more detailed explanation, check out this article from The Huffington Post.
