From sporting legends to fashion icons, political leaders to fearless changemakers, as well as renowned writers, musicians, artists, scientists, and more, these heroes' lives are vividly recounted by queer award-winning Dominican and Puerto Rican storyteller Alyssa Reynoso-Morris and brought to life by Argentinian illustrator Sol Cotti's artwork. Kids will find motivation in the stories of:

  • Lionel Messi - Superstar soccer player
  • Sonia Sotomayor - US Supreme Court Justice
  • Frida Kahlo - Iconic artist
  • Cesar Chavez - Activist and labor leader
  • Ellen Ochoa - First Latina astronaut in space
  • Lin-Manuel Miranda - Actor, composer, creator of Broadway musicals

Proud, talented, and boundless, these extraordinary men and women will inspire readers of all backgrounds to chase their dreams...whatever they may be.
