Earlier today non-secure detention students at our Belmont site participated in a special author visit program with first-time novelist Fred Aceves. Detention advisors and ELA teachers prepared students for the visit by leading readers through the beginning of The Closest I’ve Come. Mr. Aceves, who was visiting NYC from Mexico this month, answered students questions about the book and his experiences as a writer. We are grateful to Mr. Aceves for taking the time to meet with his fans, and to Literacy for Incarcerated Teens for generously sponsoring this library program.--Jessica Fenster-Sparber
