About this book

Español

Cuentos Que Contaban Nuestras

Estos cuentos han viajado por largo tiempo —sobre montañas, a través de mares y desiertos, llevados por el viento, contados por nuestros antepasados. Ahora llegan hasta ti. Una astuta zorra, un pájaro de mil colores, una gaita alegre y una jovencita audaz cobran vida en esta antología que celebra la cultura hispánica y sus múltiples raíces: indígena, africana, árabe, hebrea y española. F. Isabel Campoy y Alma Flor Ada recrean doce cuentos que reflejan la fuerza del espíritu y la extraordinaria herencia de los latinos, ilustrados por cuatro reconocidos artistas.

English

Tales Our Abuelitas Told

These beloved stories have traveled far—over mountains, across seas and deserts, carried by the wind and told by our ancestors. Now they reach you. A clever fox, a bird of a thousand colors, a joyful bagpipe, and a bold young girl come alive in this anthology celebrating Hispanic culture and its many roots—indigenous, African, Arab, Hebrew, and Spanish. Renowned authors Alma Flor Ada and F. Isabel Campoy retell twelve treasured folktales that capture the strength of spirit and rich heritage of Latino culture, brought to life by four celebrated Latino illustrators.
