- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Picked this up thinking it would be 'good for me' - teach me something about Hispanic culture etc. I was pleasantly surprised at what a kick it is! I've seen some similar motifs in folk tales from other cultures, but Hayes and Hill bring these to vivid life, making them concise, funny, and effective.
