A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Ages 5-10. Full color illustrations. Spanish HC. (English title: The Twenty-five Mixtec Cats.) Set in an indigenous Mixtec village in the artist's own Oaxaca, Mexico, the story involves a good healer, an evil healer and some extraordinary feline pets. Though some fear the cats will eat everything in sight--and maybe even set fire to fields--the cats soon win their way into the villagers' hearts. A dazzling first collaboration by the American author and Mexican illustrator!
