About this item

by Varsha Bajaj (Author), Ishaa Lobo (Illustrator)

A beautiful celebration of family--both the ones we're born into and the ones we choose.

Isha can't wait for her birthday party. Nani, her fun-loving grandmother, is coming all the way from India to be there! So when Nani has to postpone her trip, Isha is crushed. She no longer feels like celebrating. Fortunately, she has a whole neighborhood of friends to cheer her up, and they all work together to make her day truly special.

This moving intergenerational story shows the impact that chosen family can have and is a wonderful reminder to appreciate all the important people in our lives.
