Publisher Notes

Nineteen myths and folk stories from Central and South America are illustrated with striking woodcuts.

First Line

Down in Honduras there is a town called Pueblo de Chamelecon which is not much of a town after all. There is only one street in it, and the houses are like big beehives that have been squared up, and the roofs are of straw.
