Whispers from the Andes is a delightful compilation of Chilean folk tales eloquently told by well know women writers. This collection brings the history, mythology and culture of Chile to life. Offering tales about both real and imaginary characters--from the ancient Araucan people to a modern day flamingo--these stories will peak the curiosity and imagination of children and adults alike. Including a glossary of terms, this anthology is a valuable tool for parents and a resource for educators interested in feminist, Latin American or folkloric studies.
