Critic Reviews

“"One of the newest titles released this year for Day of the Dead is this fun activity book. The illustrations are fantastic and make the 16-page book seem longer than it is. However, it is the press-out 3D ofrenda, paper dolls, and stickers that truly make this book worth purchasing. The first 16 pages include your typical Da de los Muertos information and activities like what the holiday is about, how to make paper marigolds, and recipes for sugar skulls and "graveyard cake." - Monica Olivera, NBCLatino.com "I first found the Day of the Dead Activity Book last month when I was browsing on Amazon for Da de Muertos books . . . I totally based a book by its cover and, loving what I could see, I immediately added it to my cart and had it within days in my mailbox. This is one impulse buy I don't regret." - Alicia Maher, SpanglishBaby.com”
