Spanish fairy / folk tales deserve to be better known!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Few fairy tale / folk tale collections contain anything from Spain, except possibly "The Half-Chick." However, the stories in this little book are diverse, entertaining, easy to read, and as worthy of notice as those from Germany or France. Especially for children who are bilingual in English and Spanish, these stories are a cultural literacy essential. The illustratiions are also charming, and the slight intermixture of Spanish words gives a pleasantly authentic flavor.
