Tremendously animated storyteller, David Gonzalez, paints a vivid picture of the people and rich cultures of the Spanish-speaking world, with colorful tales out of the Caribbean, South America, Mexico, and the Bronx. From the silly antics of tricksters to the mysterious powers of magical beings, these stories are filled with memorable characters, fantastic plots, a splash of Spanish language, and positive messages for all.

“With speech, sound, mime, dance and above all, inspired imagination, Mr. Gonzalez has the gift of creating magical worlds and drawing his audience into them. A palpable delight.”

– The New York Times
