My sari is a memory of love.
Shreya admires her motherâs saris, whose silky swirls embrace her every morning. But her spirits plummet at the stares and whispers that the sari attracts. When Sherya asks her mother why she wears a sari, Amma answers the question with family stories brimming with generations of love.
In this gentle and empowering picture book with vibrant full-color art, Shreya moves from embarrassment to pride as she learns that Ammaâs sari is much more than a beautiful piece of clothing. It is also a connection to their shared past and the love and care woven into their family history and heritage. - Harry N. Abrams, Inc.
