Reseña del editor:
The perfect resource for parents who despair of getting their children to sit still and listen. The stories, colorfully illustrated in a sharp, bright style reminiscent of cut-paper art, bring with them an interactive approach to storytelling, a clever use of word patterns and rhythms and a boisterous wealth of songs, chants and repeated refrains.-Books for Children, Clemson University "Tell Me a Cuento is just plain charming.
