Like a needle pulling a thread, these books will pull you along. Here are two stories of two different characters who each had a dream...

The Clever Tailor

Rupa Ram is a famous but poor tailor with an unfulfilled dream — he wants to stitch something for his own family. So one day when he receives a gift of a brand new saafa , he is inspired to do just that! At the heart of this touching tale is a generous man who uses his imagination and creativity to do right by his family.

Sadiq loves stitching colourful patterns on rugs. However, his Ammi reminds him that boys in his community don’t stitch, they tend to the livestock. But Sadiq is determined to pursue his passion. This is a charming tale that defies gender norms and talks about a fading shepherd craft of Kashmir.
