Latinitas: Celebrating 40 Big Dreamers

Discover how 40 influential Latinas became the women we celebrate today! In this collection of short biographies from all over Latin America and across the United States, Juliet Menéndez explores the first small steps that set the Latinitas off on their journeys: childhood moments that propel them towards becoming the role models they are to millions around the world today.

From Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor to singer Selena Quintanilla to NASA’s first virtual reality engineer, Evelyn Miralles, this is a book for aspiring artists, scientists, activists, and more. With gorgeous, hand-painted illustrations, Menéndez shines a spotlight on these inspiring women and encourages young readers to learn more about each of the heroes featured. These women followed their dreams ― and just might encourage you to follow yours!
