Timothy M. ★★★★★

We read this every night now and my daughter loves pointing out the myna bird on the first page. The dal scene got her asking questions about what we eat for dinner, which was a nice surprise.

Violet ★★★★★

The myna bird's song on the first page had my daughter trying to whistle along before bed. The mango tree counting pages turned into a whole game for us. It's become our favorite way to wind down together.

David ★★★★★

The illustration of the myna bird singing at dawn is my daughter's favorite page, and she now asks for dal at dinner because of the food spread. We've read it every night this week and she's already memorized which page has the mango trees.
