The perfect resource for parents who despair of getting their children to sit still and listen. The stories, colorfully illustrated in a sharp, bright style reminiscent of cut-paper art, bring with them an interactive approach to storytelling, a clever use of word patterns and rhythms and a boisterous wealth of songs, chants and repeated refrains.—Books for Children, Clemson University "Tell Me a Cuento is just plain charming. Billed as a bilingual early reader, it also makes a great read-aloud-and-look-at-the pictures book for parents and children."—New Mexico Magazine Contains four of Joe's most popular stories: Do you know what a Terrible Tragadabas is? Or why the bossy rooster José can’t go to the wedding of his Uncle Perico? Or who gets to marry the butterfly, La Mariposa—the pig, the dog, the cat or the mouse? Or how come the elves gave the poor woman a pot of gold? Well, good news! Nationally known storyteller Joe Hayes teams up with illustrator Geronimo Garcia to answer all these questions with four of his most popular tales told in English and Spanish.

This dream-like story of an enchanted prince—caught by a spell in the body of a green bird—begins with the introduction of nine curious sisters. Each has a different number of eyes, beginning with the oldest, who has nine, down to the youngest, with just one. The green bird proposes marriage to Mirabel, the two-eyed sister. Though her siblings mock her and her mother forbids it, Mirabel’s steadfast vision sees past the bird to a handsome prince, and she marries him! One by one, the envious mother dispatches her other daughters to the green bird’s palace to spy on who he really is. They are overcome with the beauty of their sister’s palace, and by the power of a sleeping potion the prince has provided to Mirabel. Only the littlest sister stays awake long enough to see the green bird sing in each window of the palace and then enter and change into a prince. Her discovery prompts the mother to set a cruel trap; Pájaro Verde is forced to leave on a long journey to sickness and oblivion. But Mirabel’s love seeks him out, even in the house of the sun and the moon, and in the end restores to him his marriage and his kingdom.

Pajaro Verde / The Green Bird (Spanish and English Edition)

In his classic bilingual style, Joe tells the story of a haunted house in a poor little town in Arizona. Nobody will rent that house because they know a ghost lives there. So the landlord tries to rents it out for free. Still nobody will rent it. That is, until Elena’s father rents it. He doesn’t believe in ghosts. Lucky for Elena that her grandmother knows all about the ways of ghosts. Elena, with the help of her grandmother, resolves the mystery of “ghost fever”—and learns a lesson about life.

La Llorona / The Weeping Woman (English and Spanish Edition)

La Llorona (yoh-RROH-nah) / The Weeping Woman is the ghost story to end all ghost stories, capturing the minds of both kids and adults in the U.S. and Mexico. In Spanish and English, master storyteller JOE HAYES retells the tale of a beautiful woman whose fear and jealousy dooms her to an eternal search for all she’s lost. It appears at first to be only a frightening story filled with mysterious events that cause children to sit wide-eyed, huddling together, listening spellbound. Yet it’s the simple, universal wisdom at the core of the story that finally works its magic in their hearts. 
 La Llorona es el cuento de fantasmas que supera todos los otros. Por generaciones, ha cautivado las imaginaciones de ambos niños y adultos en México y los Estados Unidos. En español e ingles, el maestro autor JOE HAYES cuenta la historia de los celos y miedo que condenó a una bella mujer a una búsqueda eternal por todo lo que perdió. Primero parece ser solo una historia espantosa, llena de eventos misteriosos, que causa que niños se sientan cerca, completamente fascinados. Pero es la sabiduría simple y universal al centro de la historia que trabaja como magia en sus corazones.
La Llorona is available in a four-color edition in both paper and cloth. Joe’s chilling story of the crying ghost woman has sold over 600,000 copies and is truly the best known and most popular story of Hispanic America. La Llorona has more staying power than Batman and Wonder Woman combined. As proof, librarians tell us that Joe Hayes’La Llorona leaves the library more than they do, often not even bothering to come back―kids love her that much. She gives them the shivers!

This is one scary CD! Nobody tells these two cautionary tales quite like master bilingual storyteller Joe Hayes. Every Hispanic kid has heard these stories growing up. If the story of El Cucuy, with his big red ear that hears everything, doesn’t send chills down your kids’ spines, then the tale of the weeping woman who searches the riverbanks for wandering kids will surely do it. And, as Joe Hayes knows only too well, kids love to be scared! And they love to hear stories of bad kids—much worse than they are—who finally get the comeuppance they deserve! Joe tells these beloved tales in both English and Spanish, making for a fun and frightening way to get acquainted with a second language.
