In order not to hate these creatures who are sending her to her death, she imagines them as pets. It isn't just the contestants who risk the loss of their humanity. It is all who watch. I couldn't stop reading it.

This book will definitely resonate with the generation raised on reality shows like "Survivor" and "American Gladiator. Though it is not made clear in which country the events of the story are taking place, there are many countries which celebrate the Day of the Dead. For the purposes of our assignment, we'll stick with a loose interpretation of the traditions that the characters in the book follow on this day.

The Day of the Dead is a holiday season which is set aside to honor family members or other loved ones who have passed away. In keeping with our penchant for integrating artwork with our poetry, we are going to make calaveras decorated skulls and conjure poems that are either based on characters in our story, or written for loved ones we've lost.

You see, one type of offering brought to the graves by the families of the deceased is any variation on a calavera , a decorated skull that can be made out of anything from paper to lumps of painted sugar. These can be accompanied by poems as well--poems that are meant to convince the spirit of the dead to come back to the world of the living! To make our own poems, we need to consider who we want them written to. An interesting part of writing a calavera is that it can be addressed both to someone who is still alive or someone who has died.

If you want, you can write a poem for someone in your family or a character in the story. If you choose the latter, you may need to mention things about the life of that character that you either mourn or appreciate. It will be interesting to see whether or not anyone tries to make their calavera look like the character their poem is addressed to!
