My Mexico / México mío by Tony Johnston,
F. John Sierra (Illustrator)
Sway to the sounds, reach for the colors, dance to the rhythms, and
you will find your own Mexico in these poems in both English and Spanish. "Johnston
regales the senses with idyllic scenes of streets lined with a rainbow
of adobe houses, with the scent of roses growing in coffee cans and lilies
in chile jars, and with the sounds of fields of corn shaking quietly
in the warm wind. The overall impression is one of sunbaked cheerfulness,
warmth, and color ably reinforced by Sierra's pastel-tinted artwork." --
