A companion to Kelkar's The Many Colors of Harpreet Singh, this picture book features a little girl named Bindu whose bindis connect her to family and help her find courage to compete in the school talent show. This charming picture book is about a little girl who loves her bindis (and the many creative shapes they come in!). The bindis are also a connection to her Nani who lives in India. When Nani comes to visit Bindu and brings the bindis to her, it is just in time to wear something new to the school talent show. Bindu and Nani work together to shine their brightest and embrace their sparkle, even when they stand out from the crowd.
Reviews with the most likes.
Bindu loves her bindis and she loves her Nani, and she especially loves to match her Nani. It's hard for Bindu to face up to opposition and intolerance that she sometimes meets because of her culture, but Nani does it well and Bindu finds herself following her Nani's lead.
A story that is steeped in cultural pride and courage to face and overcome intolerance.
