The sun has set, the moon is full: October 31, the first day of Dia de Los Muertos, when the Dead are allowed to join the Living for three days. The old cemetery in the Alamedan Valley of New Mexico is brimming with merriment as the Dead sing, dance, and greet old friends. Gil, one of the Dead, is not celebrating. He's searched frantically for Angelina, who in life was his love. If he can't find her in time, she will be doomed to an unquiet grave for all eternity. Legends of the Bosque is based on the tales told by the author's grandfather, El Doctorcito, Dr. M.K. Wylder, who practiced medicine in the Rio Grande Valley starting in 1902. Fresh from medical school in St. Louis, MO, the young doctor entered the world of the curandero, the bruja, the shaman, and learned very quickly that things were not always as they seemed. This rich content ebook includes music; illustrations; narrative; animations; and a recipe section of foods to enjoy during Dia de Los Muertos celebrations.
