The ofrenda that we built

"The candles are lit, the food is prepared, and the sweet smell of copal floats in the air on D?a de Muertos. Built with love and dedication, the family ofrenda stands with pride. As everyone gathers to share in this ritual, each element added to the ofrenda is infused with significance--from the sugar skulls placed with care on top of the embroidered cloth to the golden petals that guide the way. Told after the style of the English nursery rhyme . . . 'The Ofrenda That We Built' invites readers to learn about and celebrate the Day of the Dead by joining in the building of a family ofrenda"--Provided by publisher.
