Always enjoy a great cultural story. Went to a Spanish emmersion (elementary) school and have LOVED IT since.
Magical and memorable

I bought this book for a friend a few years ago, and fell in love with the story, so I bought a copy for myself. I ended up giving the book to my nephew when he was born. Now that I've had my own child, I will buy it again and I look forward to reading this story to her. I like the cultural portrayal of spirits - not frightening-- that they may be spooky but we also take them for granted. It's a fun story, with bright, colorful illustrations.
