CANTOS Y CUENTOS
El Hombre, El Muchacho, y el Burro
Dr. Roy E Howard,
This story illustrates not only the technique of cuentos encadenados (chained bilingual storytelling), but also the multicultural principle that if you have confidence in who you are, you can follow your own beliefs, overcome the temptations of those who would lead you astray, and live in peace in a world of differences. The multicultural man is one who is not threatened by differences, because he is secure in his own identity. A proper multicultural curriculum is one in which all students learn because it uses techniques that address the learning style of all students in an environment safe for differences.

El Hombre, el Muchacho, y el Burro The Man, the Boy and the Donkey Aesop fable
Fábula de Esopo
A man and his son were on their way to market with their burro. As they were walking along, a neighbor called out to them, y el hombre les dijo al señor y a su hijo: "You fools, what is a burro for but to ride upon?” ¡Ay el pobre hombre, que le llaman insensato por caminar al lado de su burro. No sabía que hacer. So they thought, and thought. So, the man put the boy on the burro, y siguieron el viaje con el muchacho montado; until they passed a group of men, y uno de los hombres gritó: "Look at that lazy kid, letting his father walk while he rides!” ¡Ay, el pobre muchacho, que la llaman perezoso por montar al burro! No sabían que hacer, so they thought and thought. Cuentos Encadenados

So, the man changed places with the boy, y siguieron el viaje con el hombre montado, until they passed two women. One turned to the other and said: "Shame on that lazy lout, riding, while his poor little son has to trudge along! ¡Ay, el pobre hombre, que le regañan por dejar caminar a su hijo! No sabían que hacer, so they thought and thought.

So, the man put the boy on the burro with him, y siguieron el viaje, los dos montados. By this time they had come to the town, and the people were pointing, and laughing, hasta que el hombre no aguantó más. "Now what is the matter?", he demanded. The people said, "Aren't you ashamed of overloading that poor little donkey, you and that hulking son of yours? ROY E HOWARD
¡Ay, el pobre burro!. ¿Porqué no pensaron de la carga que le impusieron? No sabían que hacer, so they thought and thought.
So, they cut a long pole.
They then tied the burro's legs to the pole,
and raised the pole to their shoulders,
y siguieron el viaje con el burro colgado del palo con las patas atadas. Cuentos Encadenados

They walked along, with the people laughing, and the burro kicking, until they crossed Market Bridge, when the burro got one foot loose, kicked out, and caused the boy to drop the pole.
In the struggle, the burro fell off the bridge and drowned.

The Man, the Boy and the Donkey Aesop fable
A man and his son were on their way to market with their donkey. As they were walking along, a neighbor called out to them: "You fools, what is a donkey for but to ride upon?” Oh, the poor guy, they call him crazy just because he walks alongside of his donkey! So they thought, and thought. So, the man put the boy on the donkey, and they continued the journey until they passed a group of men, and one shouted: "Look at that lazy kid, letting his father walk while he rides!” Oh, the poor kid, they call him lazy for riding the donkey! They didn’t know what to do, so they thought and thought. So, the man changed places with the boy, and continued the journey, until they passed two women. One turned to the other and said: "Shame on that lazy lout, riding, while his poor little son has to trudge along! Oh, the poor man, they call him lazy for riding the donkey! They didn’t know what to do, so they thought and thought. So, the man put the boy on the burro with him, and they continued the journey. By this time they had come to the town, and the people were pointing, and laughing, until the man could not take it anymore. Cuentos Encadenados

Así que el hombre puso el niño junto con él, y siguieron el viaje, los dos montados. Para entonces habían llegado al pueblo, y la gente se burlaba de ellos, hasta que el hombre no aguantó más. “¿Ahora qué?” La gente dijo, “¿No le da vergüenza sobrecargar ese pobre burrito, usted ese jóven gordo? ¡Ay, el pobre burro!. ¿Porqué no pensaron de la carga que le impusieron? No sabían que hacer. Así que pensaron, y pensaron.
Cortaron un palo largo.
ataron las patas del burro al palo,
y levantaron el palo a sus hombros,
y siguieron el viaje con el burro colgado del palo con las patas atadas. Continuaron, la gente riéndose, y el burro luchando, hasta cruzar el puente del mercado, y el burro se soltó, pateó fuerte, y el muchacho dejó caer el palo, y el burro se cayó al rio.
!
¡Ay, el pobre burro! Ahogado por tener las patas atadas.
“Ahora van a aprender” dijo un hombre que había visto todo. “Complacer a todos, y nadie se complacerá”.
