Reviews

Filled with vital profiles and inventive portraits of incredible people to look up to.
Danielle Davis, children’s author and advocate
Now more than ever, this is essential reading that highlights an oft-overlooked community in Latin American history. This book is a triumph of the Latine spirit, and a testament to the tireless pursuit of one's identity and ideals."
Pedro Iniguez, Bram Stoker Award-nominated author of Mexicans on the Moon: Speculative Poetry from a Possible Future
Queer Latine Heroes is a timely, radiant act of reclamation. Aguilar and De Luna Cortes offer young readers the gift of visibility-25 fierce, fabulous reminders that speak to the joy, resistance, and brilliance of being queer and Latine. It's the kind of book I wish I had growing up-and the kind I'm grateful young people have now. Every classroom, home and learning space deserves this powerful collection on its shelf."
