Description
Xóchitl y Papalotl is an early middle-grade picture book for young readers about 10-year-old Xóchitl’s adventure through the Forbidden Forest as she helps a monarch butterfly to its sanctuary in Michoacán, Mexico. Remembering the legend that helping a butterfly grants a wish from the goddess Xochitlquétzal, she decides to help. Xóchitl follows the butterfly into the forest as she sings a butterfly song her grandmother taught her. On her journey, she faces El Cucuy, a tricky boogeyman. With cleverness, she outsmarts him and returns home safely. Xóchitl y Papalotl is just one of the many tales from this author’s storytelling collection.
