Vocabulary and appearance, friend instead of family, fear of a belief that is tied to culture. This story doesn't grasp the importance of honoring the dead, of remembering. It doesn't depict what it means for ancestors to be with us.

Beautiful illustrations, and great concept but I didn't feel that the execution of the concept was a strong as I would have liked. Also I felt that some of the humor got in the way. :-(
