Product Description

Junior Library Guild Selection, Junior Library Guild

Another classic collection of stories from the rich tradition of northern New Mexico, told by master storyteller Joe Hayes.

Otra colección clásica de historias de la rica tradición del norte de Nuevo México, contada por el maestro narrador Joe Hayes.

What happens when an old dog sitting at the dinner table with his master slides a whole leg of lamb, a big bowl of posole, a stack of tortillas and a bottle of wine to a coyote, who just happens to be under the table? A whole ruckus, that's what!

But that's nothing compared with some of the other wild and wonderful folktales gathered by author Joe Hayes in this bilingual edition of The Coyote Under the Table. Like his signature collection The Day It Snowed Tortillas, this book is full of lively characters and laugh-out-loud stories. There's a trio of unsuitable suitors who court a clever young girl and end up being scared out of their wits one midnight in a haunted church. And a greedy man who learns his lesson on a day when he couldn't stop dancing. And a spotted cat, who is actually a guardian angel in disguise!

Qué sucede cuando un perro viejo sentado a la mesa con su amo desliza una pierna entera de cordero, un tazón grande de pozole, una pila de tortillas y una botella de vino a un coyote, que casualmente está debajo de la mesa? Todo un alboroto, eso es!

Pero eso no es nada comparado con algunos de los otros cuentos populares salvajes y maravillosos reunidos por el autor Joe Hayes en esta edición bilingüe de El coyote debajo de la mesa. Al igual que su colección exclusiva El día que nevó tortillas, este libro está lleno de personajes animados e historias que hacen reír a carcajadas. Hay un trío de pretendientes inadecuados que cortejan a una joven inteligente y terminan asustados una medianoche en una iglesia embrujada. Y un hombre codicioso que aprende una lección el día que no puede parar de bailar. Y un gato manchado, que en realidad es un ángel guardián disfrazado!
