Mayte y el Cuco - Mayte and the Bogeyman, Del Sol BooksA spunky young girl takes on the bogeyman in this exciting bilingual picture book

The street vendors’ animated calls fill Mayte’s ears. “Plantains, avocados, mangos,” shouts Don Luis. “Eggs, eggs,” yells Don Máximo. “Ooooeeee!” whistles the blade sharpener. “Extra! Extra!” calls Cholo, who gives Mayte a wink and a smile along with the daily newspaper.  Mayte enjoys the hustle and bustle of all the vendors’ visits except for one: Don Aparicio, whose bitter disposition contrasts with the chorus of jingling bells on his ice cream cart. Mayte thinks that the grumpy ice cream man’s true identity is the Bogeyman who steals children to eat or sell at the market.  One day, Mayte and her best friend Pepito spy Don Aparicio carrying a bag with something struggling inside it. The brave pair decides to rescue the unlucky child. When they launch an attack, chaos ensues! Complemented by lively illustrations, this amusing picture book will delight young readers ages 3-7.

Vienna RoseListen to Vienna Rose read Mayte and the Bogeyman to you.  A marvelous example of the magical encounter between a child and books that we wish for all children.

Reflects daily life in a small Latino community

School Library Journal : Grade 2-4 – Mayte enjoys interacting with all of the colorful street vendors who ply their wares in her town–the produce man, the egg seller, the knife sharpener, the newspaper delivery boy. All are friendly, kind, and interesting in various ways, except for the sour and bad-tempered ice-cream man. Don Aparicio constantly mutters about naughty children who need to be taught a lesson. Mayte comes to believe that he is the Bogeyman (el Cuco) who kidnaps bad children and eats them or sells them at market. When she and her friend Pepito see the man walking down the street with a squirming bag slung over his shoulder, they assume the worst and devise a reckless plan to save the captive child in the bag. Much hilarity ensues when the Bogeyman's bag turns out to contain a couple of chickens. This fun story has an interesting enough plotline to satisfy even reluctant readers. The large illustrations depicting the various Hispanic characters in dynamic settings will also serve to draw in readers of all skill levels. The smoothly rendered text in both English and Spanish appears on the left-hand pages facing a full-bleed painting on the right.
