Lourdes Heuer, illus. by Maxwell Eaton III. Holiday House/Porter, $18.99 (40p) ISBN 978-0-8234-5570-6In an almost empty attic, a budding cartographer sits at a desk, creating an atlas for an unknown recipient. The resultant maps’ first-person annotations are reportorial in style, and it’s quickly apparent that the places and spaces, drawn by Eaton (Looking for Peppermint) in colored pencil, pen, and watercolor, portray a beloved personal geography.

Though we celebrate our cultura and community year-round, it’s especially important to continue to amplify and spotlight our community during Latinx Heritage Month. Celebrated every year from September 15 to October 15, this is an opportunity to celebrate our community’s contributions, history, and stories. Latinx representation in publishing remains low both among writers and literary agents and staffers.
