Como los perros de la pradera

(3) K-3 Translated by Guillermo Gutierrez. Illustrated by Craig Spearing. In a story set in the late nineteenth century, Mae Dean is unhappy when her family moves to the Texas prairie, but the young girl eventually comes to see why her father wants them to have their own land. The illustrations capture the pioneer spirit, Mae Dean's changing moods, and the never-ending play of light and shadow on the landscape. An authors' note provides historical background. Also available in English.
