Download or read book Manuel in Mexico Classic Reprint written by Etta Blaisdell Mcdonald and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-21 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manuel in Mexico In telling the story the most picturesque customs of the people, both in country and city life, have been introduced. On the hacienda one sees the boys playing games and riding burros, the little girls going to school, the peon laborers working in the fields, the women patting tortillas; the simple, daily life of the poor Indians. In the city is the greatest contrast. Here there are the streets thronged with gaily-dressed people, the markets, the street venders, the parks beautiful with flowers, fountains and electric lights, the canals crowded with flower-laden boats. Manuel and Benito become pages to a great lady and take part in the Christmas festivities. They learn a little history and see many of the interest ing sights in and near Mexico City. The pronouncing vocabulary at the end of the book will help to make the reading easy for children, and if they live Manuel's life with him for a little while they cannot fail to find a charm in this land of flowers and sunshine and happy childhood. The authors acknowledge their indebtedness to Mrs. Arthur L. Finney, of Orizaba, for valuable information concerning life and customs in Mexico, and to Mr. William Avery Cary for the use of his photographs.
