Montezuma and the Fall of the Aztecs

32 pp. | Holiday | March, 2000 | Trade ISBN 0-8234-1452-3 $$16.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Daniel San Souci. This straightforward account of Hernán Cortés's 1520 conquest of what is now Mexico gives both the Spanish and the Aztec sides of the story--a welcome reminder to young readers that even bloody battles shouldn't be looked at in black-and-white terms. The book's careful prose and accomplished watercolor illustrations relay both the revolution's drama and Montezuma's humanity. Bib., glos.
