֍Beneath the Stone: A Mexican Zapotec Tale; Bernard Wolf, (1994) 16 oz --- [ages 5-12, reading grades 3-6th] [Living Mayan Culture]
An excellent child’s eye perspective of life in a Zapotec Indian village, Teotitlan del Valle, Oaxaca, Mexico. This village is a well-known center of tapetes, beautiful rugs and tapestries that are hand-woven on a floor loom with patterns similar to North American Indians. The photos are clear with a perspective that kids should be able to relate to and create a wonderful mosaic of the elements of a Zapotec Indian family’s life. The writing provides a simple, but dynamic explanation of this mosaic that is, again, kid directed. This book is one I highly recommend.
