Skeletown: Más. ¡Menos!
Rhode Montijo
(Author)
Description
Fall is in the air in the Día de los Muertos-inspired world of Skeletown! Skully and Skelly are raking leaves and trekking to school amid the brisk autumn wind, so it's time to cozy up with a big sweater that Abuela just knitted--that is, until their cat Lulu grabs the yarn and begins unraveling it, leading the crew on a wild chase through the busy streets of Skeletown, in this exciting story told using only two words!
With dynamic, neon art that pops off the pages, a completely unique approach to storytelling, and a wildly appealing (but not scary!) cast of calavera characters from the fantastical world of Skeletown, here's a rambunctious romp that will inspire giggles with Spanish and English readers alike!

Reviews
Praise for Skeletown: Sí. ¡No!:
A Chicago Public Library Best Book of 2023
* "The sublime, repeated juxtaposition of Sí and No offers wacky, surprising moments of levity, and it all comes together for a charming ending. A spectacular day in Skeletown." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review
* "Good-natured, bustling cartooning reveals lots to laugh about in a friendly concept book that's overwhelmingly a 'Sí.'" --Publishers Weekly, starred review
"An interactive read-aloud story that helps teach children how to build healthy friendships and other life lessons." --School Library Journal
"Prereaders will have fun interpreting the reason behind each sí and no, and the final pages turn the plot toward the importance of collaboration and friendship--and, of course, a little mischief, too." --Booklist
"The text demonstrated a range of meanings for 'sí' and 'no' (the only two words in the book) with black, white, and blood orange images that are jam-packed with friendly skeleton details." --Horn Book
