Even before the arrival of the Spanish, the native peoples of Central and South America had a poetic idiom of their own. This bilingual anthology for young readers, containing sixty-four poems from nineteen countries, presents a fascinating mix of established and new poets. A significant portion of the book comes from the native community. Traditional pre-Colombian work is represented alongside that of young indigenous poets, who are writing some of the most exciting and fresh poetry in the Americas today.\r\n\r\nWith beautiful black-and-white illustrations by Colombian illustrator Rafael Yockteng, the book provides an outstanding introduction to a rich poetic tradition and an engaging way for young readers to encounter poetry.","EAN":"9781554981144","Height":"9.25","HeightCode":"in","Imprint":"Libros Tigrillo","NumberOfPages":"192","OtherText_ShortDescription_0":"This bilingual (Spanish and English) Latin American poetry anthology is perfect for young readers who want to engage with a fascinating mix of established and new poets, as well as enhance their language skills.","ProductFormDescription":"trade paperback","PublicationDate":"2011-09-01","Publisher":"Groundwood Books Ltd","ShortDescription":"This bilingual (Spanish and English) Latin American poetry anthology is perfect for young readers who want to engage with a fascinating mix of established and new poets, as well as enhance their language skills.","Width":"6.5","WidthCode":"in"}
