This beautifully illustrated children¿s book tells the story of Felipa, a girl living in the Andes Mountains who misses her grandmother who has died. People tell Felipa that souls live on forever. She asks the donkey, pig and llamas where her grandmother is hiding but they cannot tell her. She looks in the high mountains but cannot find her grandmother there either. In November the village holds a celebration to take special treats, candles and flowers to decorate the graves in the cemetery -- The Day of the Dead. Their laughter, music and stories bring the cemetery to life and help Felipa feel close to her grandmother. Translated from the Swiss edition. Full-color illustrations.
Reinforced binding.
