(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Renato Alarcao. Transport a batch of familiar stories to the American Southwest, spice them with its wildlife plus a sprinkle of Spanish, and stir in some contemporary mores and concerns; add dollops of humor, and season with wisdom and compassion. Yield: eleven tales distinguished by rich humanity. This delightful debut is nicely enhanced by Brazilian illustrator Alarcão's satirical, vividly detailed drawings. Glos.
