5.0 out of 5 starsBeautiful Book
By A Customer on August 25, 2003
Format: Paperback
This is a powerful and beautiful retelling of this story. This book is written in Spanish and in English and anyone interested in Latino storytelling will buy this book for their collection. I also highly recommend DRUM, CHAVI, DRUM! by Cuban author, Mayra L. Dole, and TRINOS CHOICE, by Chicana author Diane Bertrand.

5.0 out of 5 starsA beautiful tale of forgiveness and respect
By M. Pedroza on June 15, 2000
Format: Hardcover
This retelling of the Legend of Lucia Zenteno is beautifully illustrated with vibrant colors and imagination. The text is given in English and Spanish. It is the story of Lucia who has the most beautiful long hair. It is so beautiful that the river that runs throught the town falls in love with her, and when the people of the town, because of their fear, drive her away, the river and all its inhabitants leave with her. The town has to learn humility and they try to get her to return. A wonderful book with a strong female hero.

4.0 out of 5 starsbeautiful story with strong female protagonist
By A Customer on September 21, 2000
Format: Paperback
Unlike the usual simpering heroine, Lucia is strong, mysterious, natural, and good. Children who are different from others--foreign, language difficulty, intelligence higher or lower--will appreciate how this stranger bounced back from hurt.

By L. Elliott on June 5, 2013

While teaching about stereotyping and bias, I used this book in centers. The students enjoyed it. I used it with I CAN HEAR THE SUN and THE WOMAN WHO OUTSHONE THE SUN. It was great! This book is really fun to show the different ideas of beauty, too. Nice art!

3.0 out of 5 starsWhat is misunderstood is feared.
By Persop on February 9, 2016
Format: Paperback
The folk story was heard by the author who later was killed. His widow allowed the publisher's changes. In this instance the earlier spoken story is ancient Mexican folklore. As currently offered a stranger arrived and eventually left. She taught the people how to lead better lives.

Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
One of the "Old Stories" kept alive with beautiful illustrations. A great representation of what can be done to keep indigenous stories from disappearing and to keep all children aware of our place in the natural world. I have given away several copies to families as presents and continue to buy more to share ... Such a work of art! - Nancy Beckley, Bend, Oregon
