Book Description
Sadiq enjoys stitching colorful patterns on rugs, despite his mother reminding him that boys in their community typically tend to livestock instead of stitching. However, Sadiq is determined to pursue his passion. This heartwarming story challenges gender norms and sheds light on the declining shepherd craft of Kashmir. It is beautifully written by Mamta Nainy and illustrated with watercolor scenes by renowned artist Niloufer Wadia.
