From Preface:  “A lot more needs to be done to put some beautiful books and recordings out there for Latino and Hispanic communities, and I believe this Caribbean Story Finder is part of a growing challenge to give people back their heritage and to catch the stories before they disappear.. What it does is identify their own cultural stories for adults and children within the largest minority in the United States and to acknowledge the magic and strength, adventure and song in their tales with the rest of the world.   From canny tricksters to the seductive La Diablesse and dangerous loup-garous, the next pages will let you know what those are.”
