A book cover with three animals on it

THE THREE LITTLE GUINEA PIGS AND THE ANDEAN FOX written and illustrated by Ana Velez

Ana Velez, raised in Quito Ecuador, transforms the Three Little Pigs tale with the sense of community and cooperation she grew up experiencing. Nesting THE THREE LITTLE GUINEA PIGS AND THE ANDEAN FOX in words of rhythms and refrains, Velez uses endearing illustrations of Andean animals, inserts language elements of Spanish and Kichwa (an indigenous South American), carries tension thoroughout only to end with a warm and surprising resolution.  There’s more information about this book in the purchase link below.
