Bookroo's summary
Bindu loves her colorful bindis, each a link to her beloved Nani in India. As the school talent show approaches, Nani's visit brings a special gift—new bindis. Together, they embrace their unique sparkle, finding courage to stand out and shine on stage. Will Bindu's bindis help her dazzle the crowd?
From the publisher
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.
