Bookroo's summary
Two children prepare for the Day of the Dead, crafting offerings and spreading marigold petals to welcome their ancestors. As they sing and dance, the spirits join the lively celebration. This bilingual tale, rich with tradition and color, invites readers to explore the joy and reverence of this unique holiday. What stories will the night reveal as the children honor the past?
From the publisher
Now even the youngest children can enjoy the ghosts, skeletons and treats of this spirited holiday. With sugar skulls, sweet-smelling marigold petals, and joyful songs, a family welcomes back their beloved ancestors. This lively and colorful (and not too scary) tribute to a unique holiday is in English and Spanish.
