"Skeletina y el Entremundos", escrito por Susie Jaramillo, es un libro de niños inspirado por el Día de Muertos, perfecto para los fans de películas como Coco y El Libro de la vida. Este es el primer libro en una serie que combina personajes chiflados y una escalofriante aventura, con temas importantes sobre empatía, valentía, autoestima y el interminable poder del amor. Conoce a Skeletina, una niña sin miedo y amante de la diversión que vive en el Entremundos con sus amigos; algunos son monstruos, otros son fantasmas y otros, seres muy extraños. El Entremundos es un lugar peculiar que visitan aquellos que están vivos pero dormidos, y donde los muertitos pasan el tiempo cuando tienen “asuntos pendientes”. Los visitantes que llegan al Entremundos están allí porque tienen que enfrentar sus miedos o porque van a ver a alguien que recientemente dejó el mundo de los vivos. De cualquier forma, ¡siempre pueden contar con la ayuda de Skeletina!

— Kirkus"Bursting with color and an emphasis on the fact that the world in-between can be shaped and molded however the dreamer wishes. A playful story full of Latinx cultural touchstones.
— BooklistEngaging, energetic, illustrations draw in young readers with kindness and empathy. . . Skeletina and the In-Between World is a wonderful way to start conversations about managing anxiety, missing people we care about, and other things that weigh on young kids' minds.
— Common Sense Media, A Common Sense Selection for Books for FamiliesAn excellent tool to help children struggling with nightmares and fear.
— YA and Kids Book CentralI love how Skeletina and the In-Between World is inspired by Mexico’s Day of the Dead, but most importantly that I can read this book to my daughter and it will not only entertain and delight, but also inspire conversations about our fears and how to face them.
— Eugenio Derbez, Actor, Director and Producer, 3Pas StudiosThere's something deeply comforting about being led by the hand through the weird, wild, and downright bizarre by a pigtailed skeleton girl. I can think of no better book upon whom to bestow the phrase 'otherworldly charm'. Tim Burton-meets-Coco, and it's all thanks to the in-between world's most charming little skeleton.
— Betsy BirdI absolutely love how Susie merges the In-Between World and the seemingly scary and unfamiliar to inspire children (and us adults too!) to find magic and comfort in the things we may not understand.
— Valery Ortiz, Actress, Disney's Gabby Duran and the UnsittablesKids and parents will be mesmerized by the beautiful characters and brilliant colors that pop off the page. And the storyline will resonate with both children and caregivers who are exploring the world through different cultures and perspectives of childhood. A must read for all families and kids.
— Anna Maria Chavez, Former CEO, Girl Scouts of AmericaSusie Jaramillo has created such a cinematic universe—uniquely rendered but universally appealing. It's magical and delightful and with so much substance as well. Any kid will love to explore this world and any parent should feel great about the lessons it's teaching them about facing their fears.
