🎙️At age 9, he journeyed from El Salvador to the US — without his parents. On the #RIReport podcast, @jzsalvipoet talks about his new memoir, “Solito,” and @ribook's Maureen Nagle talks about why it’s this year’s Reading Across Rhode Island selection

While some are seeking to ban books, my Right to Read Act w/ @RepRaulGrijalva would help ensure public school libraries nationwide are well stocked & staffed. Our pro-library bill would help more kids develop literacy skills needed to become proficient, enthusiastic readers.
