About this listen

Hace mucho tiempo—a long time ago—there lived a beautiful young woman named Adelita. So begins the age-old tale of a kindhearted young woman, her jealous stepmother, two hateful stepsisters, and a young man in search of a wife. The young man, Javier, falls madly in love with beautiful Adelita, but she disappears from his fiesta at midnight, leaving him with only one clue to her hidden identity: a beautiful rebozo—shawl. With the rebozo in place of a glass slipper, this favorite fairy tale takes a delightful twist. This is a Cinderella story like no other. Please note that the majority of the audiobook is in English, with Spanish vocabulary throughout.

Lovely narration

Adelita was narrated with beautiful expression and prosody. The story came to life for our family. We are happy we can hear the story again and again ,and follow along in the book, while listening to the narrator's beautiful reading.
