The critically acclaimed story of a young, artistic Bangladeshi girl who bravely defies tradition in order to support her family through hard times
 
Naima is a talented painter of traditional alpana patterns, which Bangladeshi women and girls paint on their houses for special celebrations. But Naima is not satisfied just painting alpana. She wants to help earn money for her family, like her best friend, Saleem, does for his family.

When Naima's rash effort to help puts her family deeper in debt, she draws on her resourceful nature and her talents to bravely save the day.
 
Includes a glossary of Bangla words and an author's note about a changing Bangladesh and microfinance.

We've fallen in love with these books. We love the comic style because I makes reading FUN again. My kids are learning to make sound effects while reading and it’s just so exciting.

Great book to get young readers interested
Format: Hardcover
This book has been well worth its value in the first weekend. My 7 yo has read this book 3 times the same weekend it arrived. The illustrations are great and the story keeps their attention from start to finish. Great way for my 2nd grader to dive into reading more books.
