FOLKTALES AND NURSERY RHYMES
Hayes, Joe

The Coyote Under the Table / El coyote debajo de la mesa: Folktales Told in Spanish and English

(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Antonio Castro L.. Hayes's latest collection of bilingual folktales drawn from the Hispanic New Mexico oral tradition provides refreshing depth and humor. Brief source notes expand on the history of each of the ten tales and add social/historical context. Clean, unencumbered prose draws attention to the structure and rhythm of the stories, which are best read aloud. Amusing illustrations face the start of each entry.
