Amazon.com description: Product Description:
Ever since she can remember, Prietita has heard terrifying tales of la llorona the legendary ghost woman who steals children at night. Against a background of vibrant folk paintings, Gloria Anzaldua reinterprets, in a bilingual format, one of the most famous Mexican legends. In this version, Prietita discovers that la llorona is not what she expects, but rather a compassionate woman who helps Prietita on her journey of self-discovery. This tale provides a fascinating context in which to introduce and discuss folktales.” School Library Journal
