The Tomás Rivera Mexican American Children’s Book Award, named in honor of Dr. Tomás Rivera, a distinguished alumnus of Texas State University, was established by the Texas State University College of Education in 1995 to honor authors and illustrators who create literature that depicts the Mexican American experience.
