My Land Sings: Stories from the Rio Grande

Written by: Rudolfo Anaya
Illustrated by: Amy Cordova

Rudolfo Anaya, "the most widely read Mexican-American" (Newsweek), draws on the rich Hispanic and Native American folktales of his youth to tell ten enchanting stories set in the Southwest. Meet Dulcinea, who dances with the devil, and Lupe, who encounters the ghostly la Llorona one dark night. Memorable characters and evocative tales that reflect the Hispanic and Native American heritage of the United States combine to make this a book that will be treasured.
