Summary
Details

Countless voices and memories are the main characters of this story. On November 1st, at dawn, children will live the ritual of love of the Vigil of the Little Angels, walking together with their parents to the cemetery to honor the memory of their little brothers and sisters.

Mary J. Andrade, with her lively and genuine Ireri story, illustrates through text and pictures how the ancestral tradition of Day of the Dead is celebrated at the home of the children Soledad and Juanito, the main characters of this story, at the island of Janitzio.

They follow the given instructions of a centuries old' family tradition, with simplicity and pride as they commemorate the departure of their loved ones to another world.

---Infinidad de voces y recuerdos son los protagonistas de esta historia. Cada primero de noviembre al amanecer, niños y niñas vivirán el ritual de amor de la Velación de los Angelitos, caminando junto a sus padres rumbo al camposanto para honrar la memoria de sus hermanitos.

Mary J. Andrade, con la animada y genuina historia de Ireri, nos ilustra a través de texto y fotografías cómo se celebra la tradición ancestral del Día de Muertos en la casa de los niños Soledad y Juanito, los personajes principales de esta historia, en la isla de Janitzio.

Ellos siguen la pauta dada por la tradición milenaria de una familia que, con sencillez y orgullo, conmemora la partida de sus seres queridos a otro mundo.
