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!

¿Harán Skully y Skelly más travesuras o menos en esta graciosísima entrega de la serie Skeletown que facilita el uso del español?
¡El otoño ya se siente en el aire en Skeletown, el mundo inspirado en el Día de los Muertos! Skully y Skelly rastrillan hojas y caminan a la escuela entre el intenso viento otoñal, así que es hora de acurrucarse y ponerse el enorme suéter que abuela acaba de tejer… ¡hasta que su gata, Luna, toma el estambre y empieza a desenrollarlo, desatando una alocada persecución por las ajetreadas calles de Skeletown en este emocionante cuento que usa solo dos palabras!
¡Con su dinámico arte en color neón que resalta en las páginas, una manera absolutamente única de abordar la narración y un grupo de calaveras increíblemente atractivo (¡pero no aterrador!) del fantástico mundo de Skeletown, llega un revoltoso alboroto que inspirará risas tanto en los lectores que leen en español como en los que leen en inglés!

Praise for Skeletown: Sí. ¡No!:Horn Book
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." B>Kirkus Reviews, starred review
* "Good-natured, bustling cartooning reveals lots to laugh about in a friendly concept book that’s overwhelmingly a 'Sí.'" I>Publishers Weekly, starred review
"An interactive read-aloud story that helps teach children how to build healthy friendships and other life lessons." I>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." I>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."
