About
Book Details
Yasmin’s home is a tin box, burning hot in summer and freezing cold in winter. But Dubki, her stray dog friend, has no home at all. How unfair! So Yasmin decides to build one for Dubki, just like she has seen her Ammi and Abbu build for others. A heart-tugging story on a child’s idea of home, centred round a family of migrant workers who construct big houses while living in hovels themselves, displaced and longing for their own home far away. Told in the voice of little Yasmin, it speaks straight to the child reader. Illustrations evoke a gentle glow of joy and hope.
