Learn moreEl 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.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A family honors their living and dead relatives as they celebrate this holiday with shared food and stories.
The Day of the Dead is a happy day when Mar’s family gathers together. There are favorite dishes to enjoy, games to be played, and most importantly, stories to tell. No one in the family is forgotten because this is the day of the year when the dead come to visit the living—and for this holiday it is almost as if they’re alive again, as the family takes great joy in celebrating the things that made them special. Mar realizes she is just like her Grandpa Ramón, who kept a journal. And her sister, Paz, plays accordian, just like their great-grandfather. There are so many things that connect them all—and at dinner, Abuelita spins even more stories that make them feel close to the ones they will love forever. Ana Aranda’s tender text make the joy felt on this sweet day totally palpable.
