Uncle Rabbit & the Wax Doll
A children's book in Nahuatl, Spanish and English, illustrated in a tradition most readers never encounter.
A trickster tale of Uncle Rabbit and a wax doll, edited by the linguist Jonathan Amith with illustrations by Inocencio Jimenez Chino, presented in Nahuatl alongside Spanish and English. The artwork belongs to a living indigenous Mexican tradition rather than an imported picture-book style, and the book is beautiful as an object.
