Take your students to the streets of Barcelona, Madrid, Sevilla, Oviedo, and beyond with microcuentos—super short stories with fantasy endings. Each story uses magic realism to introduce important people and places from Spain. At each of these places, learn about a prominent figure—a musician, singer, writer, painter, athlete, king, queen, bullfighter, actor, architect, warrior, and many more.

Written specifically for first-year students in their second semester and for second-year students. Includes Notas culturales, comprehension questions, vocabulary help, and answer guide.
