Synopsis
Now even the youngest children can enjoy the ghosts, skeletons and treats of this spirited holiday - in a bilingual board book!
We celebrate our ancestors on The Day of the Dead / With offerings of flowers, sugar skulls, and bread.
With 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.
Two children prepare offerings of flowers, sugar skulls, and special bread, and make delicious foods to eat and share. By spreading marigold petals, they guide the dead home to join the festivities. After hours of singing, dancing, and reminiscing, it's time for bed.
The festivities are described in brief, lyrical text, presented in both Spanish and English. Bob Barner's signature collages incorporate the traditional Day of the Dead symbols and bright, bold colors to evoke the joyful atmosphere of this vibrant holiday.
Celebrate our ancestors on the Day of the Dead / Honremos a los antepasados en el Día de los Muertos!
