Say " SI!" to a fresh, funny, Spanish-forward picture book series set in Skeletown-a cheerful, vibrant world filled with Dia de los Muertos-inspired characters!
Spend the day with Skully and Skelly as they learn what to say "yes" and "no" to! With the clever use of just two words-si and no-throughout the whole book, a sequence of hilarious gags leads to mischief, chaos, and ultimately friendships soaring to new heights! At first, cautious Skelly reins in Skully's antics, but after they arrive at a friend's birthday party and the games start heating up, Skelly finally comes out of her sugar-skull shell and reveals that there's a hankering for adventure in her after all!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!Rhode Montijo is the creator of the Gumazing Gum Girl! chapter book series, as well as the picture books Cloud Boy and The Halloween Kid. He also published Pablo's Inferno, an indie comic series, and illustrated a number of other children's books. Rhode received a BFA in illustration from California College of Arts and Crafts and now lives in the Los Angeles area. Skeletown: Si. No! is the first book in his series set in Skeletown, a fun, imaginative world inspired by Dia de los Muertos.
