Overview

Dos ratoncitas con vidas muy diferentes aprenden el valor de la humildad. Una gallinita roja le pide ayuda a sus compañeros de la granja para plantar y cosechar trigo para hacer un pan. Pero ya que nadie quiere ayudarla, no comparte su pan. En esta fábula breve, un ratoncito ayuda a un león enorme. En esta fábula clásica, tres cerditos construyen casas para protegerse--una de paja, otra de palos y otra de ladrillos. Cuando llega el lobo feroz, ¿cual cerdito estará a salvo? Un elefante amable pero solitario quiere ser amigos con los otros animales, pero, uno por uno, lo rechazan. Un día, un león llega al bosque y los animales huyen con terror. El elefante puede protegerlos, pero ¿por qué lo haría si fueron tan crueles con él? En esta edición moderna de la famosa fábula de Esopo, a una hormiga le encanta la música de un saltamontes, e inspira a su colonia entera a crear sus propias melodías. Pero aún así, es difícil convencer a las otras hormigas a ayudar al saltamontes durante el invierno.

Author Information

Aesop (620-560 BC) has been known in history and in legend since the sixth century BC, or earlier, as a gifted Greek storyteller and the author of the world's best-known collection of fables. There is speculation that he was a Phrygian slave and that he was freed as a result of his wit. Though little is known about his life, his remarkable wisdom regarding human nature, conveyed through his fables, has brought him great renown. Florence White Williams (1895-1953) primarily worked as an artist and illustrator whose work included illustrated editions of The Little Red Hen and The Story of Little Black Sambo. Katharine Pyle (1863-1938) was an American artist, poet, children's author, and the sister of Howard Pyle. Over the course of her career she wrote over thirty books and illustrated the works of many others. Lorena Romero is an author, narrator, certified Spanish translator, and a public librarian specializing in early literacy and outreach to Spanish-speaking communities. She loves to write stories that Spanish-speaking children may relate to, often drawing on her own experiences growing up as a child in Mexico City, and as a teenager in California.
