Publisher's Note
When the Spaniards came to the New World, they brought a copy of Aesop's fables. Aztec scribes translated the book into their own language and made Coyote, a central figure in Native American folktales, the main character. John Bierhorst, a renowned translator of Native American literature, retells these stories, never before published in English. Wendy Watson's evocative illustrations capture the lively spirit of Coyote's adventures. Full color.

Industry Reviews
PW called this retelling of 20 Aesop's fables, as interpreted by 16th-century Aztecs, "an interesting and valuable effort." Ages 7-10. (July)
