About the Author
Horacio Quiroga nació en la población de Salto, República de Uruguay, el 31 de diciembre de 1878. Su vida fue tan intensa como su propia literatura y siempre estuvo marcada por la tragedia: su padre adoptivo se suicidó, asà como su primera esposa, Ana Maria Cirés. En un accidente mató a su mejor amigo, el escritor Federico Ferrando. Intentó ser empresario y agricultor y en ambos empeños ftacasó; sólo tuvo éxito como escritor y asÃ, en la década de los años veinte obtuvo reconocimiento en todo el continente. Pero la tragedia no lo dejarÃa en paz: se le diagnosticó un severo cancer en el estómago que lo llevó a tomar la decisión final. En la madrugada del 19 de febrero de 1837 acabó con el martirio tomando una gran dosis de cianuro.

5.0 out of 5 stars
bilingual teacher's saving grace,
By Suzanne (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cuentos de la selva (Hardcover)
What can a bilingual teacher do when s/he notices that students look bored during read aloud? If they are in grades 2 or above, whip out Cuentos de la selva, a collection of stories about animals in the jungles of South America. Start with "El loro pelado". That will captivate them completely. After that, they will enjoy all other stories. Any student with a 5th grade reading level can read and enjoy the stories independently. I would like to thank Amazon.com for finding this book for me. I tried several other publishers, and they were unable to find me this gem.
