El Día de Muertos es un día festivo muy especial, en el cual las familias celebran y comparten historias y risas que traen a los muertos de vuelta a la vida. ¡Ven y únete al festejo!

Es un día en el cual la familia reunida cuenta historias y ríe. Hay platillos favoritos por cocinar y poemas por escribir para los muertos, y lo más importante: memorias por evocar. Ningún familiar es olvidado, porque éste es el día en el que los muertos vienen a visitar a los vivos—y en este día festivo, es casi como si estuvieran sentados a nuestro lado mientras celebramos las cosas que los hicieron especiales. El texto tierno y el arte vibrante de Ana Aranda hacen que la alegría de este día sea tangible.
