Si tu cumpleaños es el DÃa de los Difuntos, prepárate para una sorpresa mortal. El bestseller de Ledicia Costas ganador del Premio Nacional de Literatura Infantil.
Ten-year-old Román Casas dreams of becoming a chef and is convinced that nothing beats baking sweets, brownies, and cookies. So, when he asks for a cooking course for his birthday, he’s expecting a delicious experience. Instead, the gift he receives is a mysterious black coffin containing instructions on how to bring Escarlatina—a 19th-century deceased cook—back to life.
Together with Escarlatina, a quirky French spider named Lady Horreur, and his cat, Dodoto, Román embarks on a journey aboard a "mortibus" (a hearse-bus) to the Underworld. There, he discovers a realm of the departed, filled with spine-chilling recipes, impossible races, and a tyrant determined to thwart his plans.
To help his new friend, Román must find a dish capable of winning over both the living and the dead. Along the way, he learns that friendship, memories, and courage can be found in the most unexpected places.
