“El Paso native and current Austenite, Miguel A. Briones, reclaims Chicano masculinity in Macho No Machismo: Helpful and Nice, a children’s book that models what it means for young boys to be macho and kind. Isa Medina’s illustrations feel like a warm hug, and Briones’ tale of Macho Manuel is as gentle and tactful an intervention into machismo as I’ve ever seen.” —Paloma Aguirre
