Skeletina and the In-Between World

Ages 3 to 6

Introducing Skeletina, an exciting new Latinx picture book character, perfect for readers seeking a quirky, lighthearted Halloween tale!

Meet Skeletina, a fun-loving, fearless little girl who lives in the in-between world with her friends, who include monsters, creatures, ghosts, and more. The upside-down, inside-out, in-between world is where the living go when they are fast asleep and where the dead hang out when they have unfinished business. Visitors who come to the in-between world are there to confront their fears or they come to see a loved one who has recently left the world of the living. Either way, Skeletina is there to help!

Inspired by Día de los Muertos and perfect for fans of the hit movies Coco and The Book of Life, Skeletina and the In-Between world is the first book in a series that combines kooky characters and a spooky story with important and resonant themes about empathy, bravery, self-esteem, and the enduring power of love.

Skeletina and the In-Between World is also available in Spanish--Skeletina y El Entremundo!
