WHEREAS, Observed annually, El Día de los Niños/El Día de los
Libros was founded by children's book author Pat Mora in 1997; the

Libros has made a positive difference in the lives of countless
young Texans by fostering a greater love for learning, and the
Nueces County Public Libraries are indeed worthy of recognition for
their participation in this event; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas
