Talking Eagle and the Lady of Roses: The Story of Juan Diego and Our Lady of Guadalupe
(4)
K-3
Illustrated by
Amy Córdova.
Córdova and Gollogly retell the story of Juan Diego--born Talking Eagle or Cuauhtlatoatzin--and his miraculous encounters with "Mary, the Mother of God." The bishop doesn't believe Juan until he produces his cloak, with roses spilling out and the imprint of Mary upon it. The text, though wordy (at times ponderously so), effectively communicates events. Vibrant-hued illustrations depict the scenes.
