Gathering flor de muetros, making atole, and placing sugar skulls celebrating the beauty of life
and death are featured in this Day of the Dead board book for little ones. If these fun and
colorful illustrations seem familiar, they’re from Jorge Gutierrez, the creator of the beloved 2014
animated film, The Book of Life. An excellent introduction to Día de los Muertos for ages two
and up. Recommended By Kim T., Powells.com
