(3) K-3 When Beto's family celebrates the Day of the Dead, he can't think of anything to put on the altar for his late grandmother. Then in a dream his grandmother reminds him what is most important to her--Beto! The story includes many colorful details and Spanish words that draw the reader into the setting, and the vibrantly toned, busy illustrations are full of movement.
