Brand new staff pick coming at you! We love to highlight items in our collection recommended by a Rodolfo "Corky" Gonzales Branch staff member. This staff pick comes to you from Tracy and her sweet pooch Woochie! The title she recommends is Woman of Light by Kali Fajardo-Anstine. Here's why she loves it: "This book is written by a local Colorado author and about 5 generations of Latin American families as they try to make their way through hardships in Denver and surrounding areas in the 1930's. Sprinkled with magical realism and an enduring sense of hope through those hardships, it's a great read."
