Today is the first day of Latine & Hispanic Herita

Today is the first day of Latine & Hispanic Heritage Month! This month honors the cultures and contributions of both Hispanic and Latine Americans as we celebrate heritage rooted in all Latin American countries. Each week, we will be shining a spotlight on different authors.

This week, Mia is recommending the book Ghost Squad by Claribel Ortega.

"For Lucely Luna, ghosts are more than just the family business. Shortly before Halloween, Lucely and her best friend, Syd, cast a spell that accidentally awakens malicious spirits, wreaking havoc throughout St. Augustine. Together, they must join forces with Syd's witch grandmother, Babette, and her tubby tabby, Chunk, to fight the haunting head-on and reverse the curse to save the town and Lucely's firefly spirits before it's too late."

Put a hold on the book at fppl.org or call 708-689-6125.
