Elida Bonet
Go on a journey to far away lands where mangoes, papayas, and sugar cane grow—where the sun is hot on your back, where the music makes your feet dance and your hips sway, where the words come out of your mouth as a song—in Spanish!
Go on that journey with Elida Guardia Bonet for, "making magic with words and tunes and colors and moons is Mrs. Bonet's gift. She is a storyteller, a "cuentacuentos" ... Her voice lilted like a Mexican campesina's as her hands ran along clay walls and slender tree trunks. In our minds, the room's walls fell away..." said Douglass Crouse from The Panama News.
