"Los Gatos Black is my all-time favorite Halloween book. It shrieks and howls and creaks and made me laugh and shiver at the same time. Montes' words leap off the page and Morales' artwork shines and shimmers and conjures up images of her native Mexican Day of the Dead. It is breath-taking..."

    " I really enjoyed this book because Halloween is my favorite holiday and it just kills me that it is so taboo in public schools. I liked learning the spanish words for zombie and mummy and vampire, to name a few. "

    " Los Gatos Black on Halloween is a bilingual book that includes rythym and rhyme. It's made up of poetry that describes a Halloween night wher mummies, warewolves, witches, and vampires have a ball. What happens when some children show up to this ball for treats? "

    " this book was only ok because it was scary and creepy for my young children. The inclusion of Spanish words was fun and added a fun learning element to the book but even though it is a Halloween book, I would prefer it to be not so dark and freaky. "
