    For the fourth consecutive year, from October 10 to 15, we held our great Reading Festival / The Reading Festival, with the purpose of promoting literature and reading in Spanish in the community of Miami, with a special emphasis on children and young people , But without forgetting the adult audience. On this occasion we had as special guests the authors Georgina Lázaro, from Puerto Rico, and Martha Riva Palacio Obón, from Mexico.  
    The program included, among other activities, visits to public schools in the city, a seminar on children's literature and reading dedicated to teachers and the recital for adults Voices and verses: A night for poetry, with the participation of writers Yosie Crespo ( Cuba), Legna Rodrí­guez Iglesias (Cuba) and Francisco Larios (Nicaragua). The poster illustration was the work of the Mexican illustrator Israel Barrón.
