Once upon a time, in a land far away...

These stories have journeyed far -- over mountains, deserts, and oceans -- carried by wind, passed on to us by our ancestors. Now they have found their way to you.

A sly fox, a bird of a thousand colors, a magical set of bagpipes, and an audacious young girl...A mixture of popular tales and literary lore, this anthology celebrates Hispanic culture and its many roots -- Indigenous, African, Arab, Hebrew, and Spanish.

F. Isabel Campoy and Alma Flor Ada have retold twelve beloved stories that embody the lively spirit and the rich heritage of Latino people.

The work of four leasing Latino artists and illustrators highlights this unforgettable collection.

Wonderful collection

This is part of our preK homeschool curriculum. My 3 and 5 year old and I are learning lots! The kids are totally enchanted with the stories. I love how the author includes a discussion of each story to give historical and cultural context. The stories lend themselves well to all manner of retelling (puppets, plays, etc)

Wonderful tales

So happy I was able to find a copy of this. The tales are fun and the illustrations are beautiful. Unlike any other book of folk tales we have. I purchased a used copy, and it came in even better condition than I expected.
