Kindergarten-Grade 2–When Abuelita dies, Felipa misses her a great deal. When she is told that people's souls live on forever, she asks the donkey, the pig, and the llamas where her grandmother is hiding. They do not tell her. She searches high in the Andes but can not find her there either. In November, the village prepares for a celebration in which special treats, flowers, and candles are taken to decorate the graves and the cemetery comes to life with laughter, music, and stories. The child then feels close to her grandmother through the memories that her parents share with her. The almost-impressionistic paintings are done in rich shades of yellow, orange, and blue; they capture Felipa's emotions but few details of the culture or celebration. This will be an excellent story to pair with nonfiction sources regarding the Day of the Dead but may not be fully appreciated without additional information.–Sandra Welzenbach, Villarreal Elementary School, San Antonio, TX |

In this wonderfully illustrated children's book, Steven Kellogg mixes history and legend to tell a charming tale. Because of the lengthy text on the pages and the more mature vocabulary used, as well as two different discussions about Sometimes, the illustrations tell the story without the need for words.And the map at the back of the book will help children visualize his life-long journey. |
