More Margarito and Me

Whether it's building a chicken house out of an old pickup, cleaning a ditch, or counting cattle high in the mountains of 1970s northern New Mexico, Margarito Montoya has a story to tell. And his young friend Ricardo, even when he's struggling to keep an overloaded pickup from going off Deadman's Curve, just can't help but pay attention.

These fifteen short stories, suitable for readers in their teens and beyond, bring to life the animals, history, culture, legends, and people, living and dead, of New Mexico through the magic that can be found every day if you just know where to look for it.
