Nobel Peace Prize winner and noted Maya activist Rigoberta Menchu
Tum returns once more to the world of her childhood in The Secret
Legacy. Seven-year-old Ixkem is chosen by her grandfather amongst
all the villagers to inherit the responsibility for tending his
special cornfield. Ixkem goes to the field and begins to shout and
stomp to frighten away the animals who would like to share the
harvest. Suddenly a mass of tiny creatures appear -- the b'e'n --
secret animal spirits of which there is one for every human on
earth. They take Ixkem into the underworld, where she tells them
the amazing stories that her grandfather has told her. In exchange
the b'e'n whisper a secret for her to take to her grandfather. Rich
and vibrant illustrations by noted Mazatec-Mexican artist Domi
perfectly complement this magical Maya tale. Key Text Features
