Legends of Big Bend Texas

By Ginger Hopkins

In far West Texas, alongside the Rio Grande bordering Mexico, exists an unforgiving territory known as Big Bend National Park. These four legends in The Legends of Big Bend National Park offer fun and entertaining stories told by wild animals or cowboys in Big Bend that children between the ages of 8-12 will enjoy. #1 The Legend of Balance Rock: How did Balanced Rock get his name? #2 The Legend of the Canyon of the Brujas: Where does the singing come from in Canyon of the Brujas? #3 The Ghost of Chief Alsate and Those Mysterious Marfa Lights: Why is Chief Alsate still hovering in the mountains above the Basin. What are those mysterious Marfa lights? #4 The Ghost Steer: There's a ghost longhorn steer? Each legend has a scavenger hunt at the end of it and there is a challenge for the reader to write their own legend at the end of the book.
