"An entertaining marriage of pictures and words."--"Kirkus Reviews"

In 1996, master storyteller Joe Hayes and illustrator Rebecca Leer created "A Spoon for Every Bite." It became an instant classic. In this lovely New Mexico folktale, a rich man tries to prove his wealth to his poor neighbors by using a new spoon for every bite. In the process, he's served a pretty dish of come-uppance. "A Spoon for Every Bite" is available for the first time in the bilingual format for which Hayes is famous.

Joe Hayes is one of America's premier storytellers--a nationally recognized teller of tales from the Hispanic, Native American and Anglo cultures. His bilingual Spanish-English tellings have earned him a distinctive place among America's storytellers.
