It is Undas, the Filipino Day of the Dead where all gather at the cemetery, not to mourn but to celebrate. Today, Pedrito and Pipay will encounter families of all shapes and sizes, all united in their desire to honor their loved ones. Whether through quiet prayer and contemplation or joyful song and laughter, whether through the sharing of great feasts or the lighting of a single candle, each family will find a way to pay tribute. In this exquisitely illustrated story of family love within a diverse and inclusive community, life and hope continue despite the sadness of loss.
