Moon Over the Mountain: Luna Sobre La Montana

by Keith Polette

Moon Over the Mountain: Luna Sobre La Montana Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis:

A fun-filled retelling of a traditional Asian tale in which a discontented stonecutter is never satisfied with each wish that is granted him. The story is set in a vivid Southwestern landscape where we meet Agipito who is a poor stonecutter. Time after time, Agipito's wishes are granted, but, each time, he finds something wrong with the wish he is given. Finally, when Agipito wishes to become a coyote--a favorite trickster character in many folktales--he is finally happy and disappears into the desert. Agipito learns, humorously, that what you wish for may not always be what would be best for you.
