La Llorona (yoh-RROH-nah), now available for the first time in a full-color paperback, is the ghost story to end all ghost stories and truly the most popular cuento of Hispanic America.

This story of the weeping woman appears at first to be only a frightening tale filled with mysterious events which cause children to sit wide-eyed.

Yet it's the simple, universal wisdom at the core of the story that finally works its magic into their hearts. Joe Hayes is best known for his bilingual tellings of stories from the American Southwest.

La Llorona is one of his favorite stories.
