Bestselling novelist (How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents) and children''s (The Tia Lola Stories) author Julia Alvarez''s new picture book is a beautifully crafted poem for children that gently addresses the emotional side of death.

A Spanish-language edition of the book, ¿Donde va a parar?, is available in paperback. Less
