51st Ward Books is now ¡Viva! Los Libros!
Our new name celebrates the power of books. Books expand our imaginations. Books bring us into new worlds and experiences and importantly, books are essential to understanding our histories and the stories that have the power to bring communities together. Books are soil that can be planted and cultivated to grow the next generation of bilingual, multicultural leaders.
