I thought this was my first time reading <i>An Evening in Guanima</i> but I believe it's actually my second time! All of the tales in here are delightful and whimsical. Some are tales of woe while others have an educational warming. These folktales give a glimpse of cultural phenomena that looks to be slowly dying, folktales just don't seem to be spread or a source of entertainment as it was before the age of electronics. All of these stories are short in length and the entire book is a quick fun read for all ages.
