This review is from: Pajaro Verde / The Green Bird (Spanish and English Edition) (Hardcover)
Pajaro Verde: The Green Bird is an enchanting bilingual English/Spanish fairy tale about many-eyed sisters and an enigmatic prince named Pajaro Verde. Illustrated with beautifully rendered and realistic color artwork of fabulous scenes and events, Pajaro Verde is an unforgettable picture book story for young readers and would be a welcome addition to any school or community library collection.

Mysterious, beautiful, strong heroine,
This review is from: Pajaro Verde / The Green Bird (Spanish and English Edition) (Hardcover)
A magical tale based on New Mexican folklore. Mirabel falls in love with a green bird (Pajaro Verde) and marries him despite her sisters' and mother's jeering. He is of course a prince in disguise, and when he is injured, she must rescue him. Another twist in the story is that Mirabel's sisters have various numbers of eyes, from nine to one. The illustrations are gorgeous. English and Spanish text.
I have included this book (plus many more feminist folk tales) in my online Gender Equality Bookstore. |
