When SenÌor Death comes for her, Esperanza tricks him into climbing her tree, where he becomes stuck, unable to come down and do his work. From that point on, no one dies. But when Esperanza learns that the end of death doesn't mean the end of suffering, she agrees to let SenÌor Death down from her tree."-- NetGalley web site. 650 0 $a Death $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Suffering $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Hope $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Trees $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Tales $z Spain $v Juvenile fiction. 700 1 $a Goodnight, Madelyn, $e illustrator. 941 $a 3 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20200421011233.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204095700.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110082448.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6C73986C337911EAAB6AAA0C97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWRInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
