Show Notes
Host Dave talks to Marta Martinez, Executive Director of RI Latino Arts, and Maria Cotto, bilingual children's librarian at Pawtucket Public Library, about Hispanic Heritage Month and the Rhode Island Latino Books Award. They also talk about their love of documentaries and how it feels to find a mirror to your own experiences in books. In the Last Chapter they discuss: what's a fictional world you would like to step into?
