Mexican tales

Embark on a journey to a world where spirits and gods can alter the fate of every living being, while the earth whispers its ancient lore.

You will meet Nakawé—the earth goddess who aids the brave Watákame in crossing the five seas, and you will discover how the Feathered Serpent and the Smoking Mirror wage their age-old battles for the throne. What is the noblest deed, and how do you recognize a true friend? Where are the vanished bees or the living water hidden? What is the greatest treasure?

This book is a bridge, reaching from a time when the stars conversed close to the earth. Discover the secrets of the Maya and the Aztecs, hidden in tales of heroism and magic—stories that shine like jade.
