a trickster tale and counting book
When a skeleton named Senor Calavera comes to her door to collect her, Grandma Beetle delays answering the knock and continues on with her preparations for her birthday party. By the time the party begins, Senor Calavera is having too much fun to finish his original task. Children will learn numbers in English and Spanish, and enjoy art inspired by Mexico's Day of the Dead festival. Includes a conversation with the author.
