Tesoros Mexicanos

This slim, nicely organized collection of Mexican sayings (or "dichos Mexicanos") made a nice addition to my writer's library. I collect many resource books that help me add flavor and accuracy to my fiction and poetry writing. This book pulls together many wonderful aphorisms from Mexican culture and gives them to you in both English and Spanish. The categories include sayings about love, philosophy, religion, animals, and others. Dichos such as, "Old is the sun and it still shines," or "It was your fortune to have a wagon, now drag it," make you smile while offering ancient truths. This is an enjoyable and educational collection that you will come back to time and time again.
