Los Tres Cerdos = The Three Little Pigs [Spanish] [Large Print]
Este libro ofrece una nueva versi?n recondimentada del cuento "Los tres chanchitos". En este relato los cerdos se llaman Nacho, Tito y Miguel. Comen tortillas frescas y ma?z asado. Cocinan estofado de chile tierno (se incluye la receta) y prefieren vestirse con los antiguos trajes de petimetre, sombreros de vaquero y guayaberas. Por el paisaje que se describe y por los modismos que emplean, la historia definitivamente transcurre en el sudoeste. En esta versi?n, la violencia ha sido minimizada respecto del relato folcl?rico original. A pesar de que Jos?, el lobo, a?n sue?a con comerse a los cerdos, la escena m?s violenta muestra al lobo siendo arrollado por un barril desbocado. Las excelentes ilustraciones son entretenidas, inteligentes y ocurrentes, y ofrecen una serie de chistes visuales y referencias transculturales como las de Elvis Presley, Frida Kahlo y Cantinflas.

Los Tres Cerdos- Mucho Bueno
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
'Los Tres Cerdos' is an absolutely brilliant bilingual book. Bobbi Salinas has created an excellent socio/political version of the classic 'Three Little Pigs'. It is full of good humor, exquisite southwestern illustrations, and intelligently presented morality lessons. Side-by-side translated English/Spanish text is an excellent learning tool for children of all ages. The detailed images, full of local venacular in both languages, are a fine read in their own right. I love it as a former Hawaii, New York City and currently Albuquerque resident/artist. I believe you will too. I bought this book in 1998 for the original $17.95. I just paid $24.99 and am very happy to have replaced the first copy I gave as a gift to a child. NOTE: It is such ashame thatthis book is out-of-print and some vendors are asking outrageous prices (up to $398.). Please someone reprint, so more people can enjoy this great book!

A colorful version of the three pigs a la latino
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
The tres cerdos brings beautiful illustrations of the true lifestyles of many latinos/mexican-americans living here in the U.S. My third grade students love it especially the fun and detailed pictures. Those children of latino/mexican-american decent can relate to the lifestyles and the children of other decents can learn and appreciate the beauty of the culture. I would give it five stars *****.
