A number of the crafts in this book rely on modeling clay, which I certainly don't keep lying around the house. The directions also aren't very clear (cutting out papel cortado are too detailed to simply say 'cut the decorations out'). It may be a book written by an adult who forgot what it is to be a kid.

A nice how-to book that includes historical descriptions of the different aesthetics of Day of the Dead.
