Today is the last day of Día de Muertos, All Souls Day, a special time of remembrance of all those who’ve passed on. These two gorgeous picture books describe with beautiful illustrations and words the meaning of this Mexican holiday traditionally celebrated on November 1 and 2.
I love Sandra Boynton’s books and when I read this one, I knew it was the perfect opportunity to include the chickens ! Eek ! Halloween ! is silly and playful and describes what is happening during Halloween Season from the chickens ‘point of view.
This picture book is truly gorgeous : based on the true story of Mildred, Harriet, Brenda, and Wilma Moody, this non fiction book shows the incredible work realized by the sisters in Southern California in the 30s.
