From Follett
Text in spanish.;Translation of: Domitila, a Cinderella tale from the Mexican tradition.;Map on endpaper. By following her mother's admonition to perform every task with care and love, a poor young Mexican girl wins the devotion of the governor's son.
From the Publisher

A retelling of the Cinderella fairytale from the Mexican tradition.

Domitila is not only "sweeter than a cactus bloom in early spring," she is also a talented cook and an amazing leather artist. Most of the classical elements of a Cinderella story can be found in Domitila. A gentle weaving of her mother's nurturing with strong family traditions is the secret ingredient for Domitila to rise above hardship to eventually become the Governor's bride. Moreover, with a firm belief in simplicity and realism, Domitila makes a lasting impression as a triumphant Cinderella in her humility, service, and unassuming modesty.
