The Library of Dreams Visits San Jacinto Open Market

Last Saturday November 18, I went to the San Jacinto open market and read many books to children. This reading event at the open market is part of La Biblioteca de los Sueños, The Library of Dreams, efforts to promote literacy in El Salvador. It is so wonderful to give ‘mi granito de arena’ to inspire children to read, imagine and dream.

The Library of Dreams is overlooking the magnificent San Salvador volcano and right in front of the amazing San Jacinto Hill. The library serves as a literary cultural space where children can enjoy books, art and gardening activities with the assistance of local librarians, teachers and cultural workers. Children and their families can go to the library, read and enjoy in a safe learning environment.

Please consider donating Spanish or bilingual children’s books from ages 4 to 18.
