(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Maya Christina Gonzalez. Stories such as "Malintzin of the Mountain," "The Virgin of Guadalupe," and "Blancaflor" show the variety and richness of Mexican folklore about women. The retellings, each featuring a strong or clever heroine, flow smoothly, and the text is generously decorated with banners and full-page folk-art-style illustrations in strong, earthy colors. Bib., glos.
