Beschreibung:
Join in the festivities with this classic Mexican chant that has delighted generations of children and families!
In this colorful adaptation of El Reloj de la Calavera (The Skeleton Clock), all the adventure takes place on Domingo Grande, the Sunday before Día de los Muertos. Abuelito (grandpa) is taking care of his twin granddaughters, while abuelita (grandma) buys supplies for the ofrenda (offering). Along the way, they run into a playful troupe of marionette skeletons, las calaveras, who have emerged from the graveyard to celebrate the holiday!
Music educator Gabriela Montoya-Stier shares inspiration from her own heritage and childhood memories of the holiday, and artist Adrienne Gaylord captures the humor, love, and magic of this timeless chant in her vibrant and charming illustrations.
El Reloj de la Calavera will quickly become a favorite you’ll return to una y otra vez, again and again!
