Description
Prietita, a young Mexican American girl, becomes lost in her search for an herb to cure her mother and is aided by the legendary ghost woman. While looking for an herb to cure her mother, Prietita gets lost in the woods in this English-Spanish fantasy. Prietita goes into the woods in search of the missing herb that can help cure her mother. Despite the frightening stories she has heard of the legendary ghost woman who steals children at night, she is not afraid when she encounters La Llorona. The rich velvet tones of the book's illustrations provide a powerful and magical setting for this beautiful story.
