“Filled with ghosts, devils, and tricksters . . . This appealing volume will add diversity to folklore collections.” —Library Journal Rich in the folklore of his ancestors, Rudolfo Anaya’s tales will delight young readers from across the globe. In stories both original and passed down, this bestselling and American Book Award–winning author incorporates powerful themes of family, faith, and choosing the right path in life. In “Lupe and la Llorona, ” a seventh grader searches for the legendary Llorona; in “The Shepherd Who Knew the Language of Animals, ” a shepherd named Abel saves a snake and gains the ability to understand the language of animals; In “Dulcinea, ” a fifteen-year-old dances with the Devil. Other tales feature coyotes, ravens, a woodcutter who tries to cheat death, the Virgin Mary, a golden carp, and a young Latino who seeks immortality. Deeply rooted in ancient mythological beliefs and based on the folklore and traditions of Mexican and Native American cuentistas, these accounts of enchantment are as beautiful and mysterious as the Rio Grande itself—and serve as a testament to the lost art of oral storytelling. This ebook features illustrations by Amy Córdova.
