Re: [LM_NET] TARGET: Spanish Books

[Christine Rayl <cjrayl@YAHOO.COM>]

A really nice collection of folktales:

Tales our Abuelitas Told: A Hispanic Folktale Collection by Alma Flor Ada, F. 
Isabel Campoy - a wonderful book!!!! 

Available in English and Spanish. You could get one of each with the money given.

Reading is not a duty, and has consequently no business to be made disagreeable.
