Funny Bones: Posada and His Day of the Dead Calaveras

Funny Bones explores the origins of the playful calaveras—skeleton figures associated with Mexico’s Dia de los Muertos festival—created by artist Jose Guadalupe Posada. Through engaging storytelling, the audiobook highlights Posada's life, his work as a political cartoonist, and his lasting artistic legacy. Author Duncan Tonatiuh combines visual and narrative elements to shed light on a beloved, yet largely behind-the-scenes, figure in Mexican art history.
