Praise
“Wadhwani shows the young, and reminds the older reader that saris are heirlooms of memory and stories are not just found in books, but also within the walls of our wardrobes.” —STARRED REVIEW, Quill and Quire
“Stylized, comic-style illustrations feature traditional sari colors and designs; the artwork is laced with hints of the rich variety of handcrafted saris. A celebration of culture and memory.” —Kirkus Reviews
“When young Avani ventures into the cabinet that holds her mother’s saris, a wealth of family stories come to light in this reflective work that introduces themes of legacy and memory. . . . Dwivedi’s saturated illustrations are nearly tactile in their richness, hand-rendered in watercolor, gouache, and colored pencil on paper.” —Publishers Weekly
“While they’re not quite the evil masterminds that the book claims, they’re set up to wreak adorable chaos in future books.” —Booklist
“An essential purchase on an underrepresented topic for school and public libraries.” —School Library Journal
