I am an adult, but this was an appealing story that portrayed the efforts of a young girl trying to help her parents in their struggle to make a living. She makes big mistakes, but it all comes right in the end. The story helped me learn about the culture of Bangladesh, with some help from a glossary, which included a picture of how to wrap a saree. The beautiful illustrations include designs called alpanas used to decorate houses.
