Get ready for a colorfully entertaining Day of the Dead celebration! Graveyard skeletons shake, rattle, and roll as a Mexican family marks the annual Day of the Dead holiday. At dusk on the holiday known as Day of the Dead, a Mexican family has set out fiesta offerings in the graveyard in hopes that departed loved ones may return to visit. The playful skeletons rise from their graves to celebrate with gusto. All night long, they sing, dance, dine, tell stories, and play games. As morning approaches, they give thanks to the stars for their night of fun, tidy up after themselves, and leave no trace of their "clatter bash" behind as they return to their coffins until next year's Day of the Dead. Author-illustrator Richard Keep's rollicking rhyme―sprinkled with Spanish words―captures the bone-rattling sounds and fun of the evening. An illustrated afterword gives information about the customs associated with el Día de los Muertos, a Mexican celebration of honoring relatives who have passed on.

Each one of us has a perception of reality that is shaped by a number of factors, such as our senses, our experiences, our beliefs, our emotions, and our perspectives. This book draws from personal experiences, culture, technology, genes, philosophy, and attempts to reveal a path that systematically unveils the tools to understanding ourselves better and as a result unlock the potential deep within us. If we believe that the world is a dangerous place, we may be more likely to interpret events in a negative way. Conversely, if we believe that the world is a friendly place, we may be more likely to interpret events in a positive way. By creating an awareness of how these perceptions of reality are influential and understanding how our minds work, we can become more objective in our thinking and make better informed decisions. Technology growth has fueled our communications by helping us stay in touch with friends and family anywhere in the world, collaborate with colleagues & clients located anywhere in the world, provided accessibility to almost unlimited information and knowledge at the click of a few buttons, improved quality of life for people with disabilities, wearables to monitor our health and fitness. Despite all these life enriching experiences, there is a deep sense of anxiety, fear, and tension that is tied to newer innovations like Artificial Intelligence (AI) and many other products. Embark on this unique transformational journey with author Rajeev Nalawadi to analyze from an engineer's perspective the concepts of I, Me, Mine, You in our lives. When we see ourselves as "I", we are seeing ourselves as separate from the world around us. When we see ourselves as "me", we are seeing ourselves as a collection of thoughts, feelings, and experiences. When we see ourselves as "mine", we are seeing ourselves as attached to things and people in the material world. When we see ourselves as "you", we are seeing ourselves as connected to all other beings in the universe. How can we transform ourselves to chart life’s journey to lead a more fulfilling life amidst the wave of breakneck speed innovations about to be introduced. Tapping into the field of all possibilities is within reach for all of us, it just needs to be explored the right way. Rather than being overwhelmed by the blast of technological innovations headed our way, we can use some techniques to manage our life’s transformations in a way that can instill peace, and calmness.
