Empowering Minds: Local Author Marissa Morales Celebrates World Book Day in the Bronx

On Tuesday, the Parkchester Library in the Bronx was alive with excitement for World Book Day. Marissa Morales, a local resident who is deeply passionate about reading and writing, shared her love for books with fellow book lovers.

Morales, who wrote her first book in first grade, has since become an accomplished author and host of a monthly book club at the library. To celebrate World Book Day, she organized a writing workshop to encourage others to explore their own storytelling potential. She emphasized the power of books as a tool for exploring different perspectives, cultures, and places.

Morales believes that everyone has a unique voice that deserves to be heard through the power of storytelling. She hopes that the Bronx community will take advantage of the resources available at their local libraries, especially on World Book Day. By sharing her passion for books, Morales aims to inspire others to discover the joy of reading and writing.
