Summary | Asha's papa makes the best wooden toys in India. At least, Asha thinks so. But some days Papa doesn't sell a single toy. While her papa is at the market, Asha spends her time painting-her chair, the cupboards, nothing is safe!-but Papa wishes she would spend more time studying. Is there a way that Asha can make a better life for her and Papa? Author and illustrator Sakshi Mangal drew inspiration from her childhood in India for this sweet picture book. It celebrates the life-changing power of art in the real world, and offers children an opportunity to explore the concept of colour and the influence of the visual arts in their everyday lives. |
