Amma's Sari, a captivating tale crafted by the talented duo behind The Boy Who Tried to Shrink His Name, has been recognized with the prestigious 2022 Children's Book Council of Australia's Award for New Illustrator. This profound work delves into the themes of familial bonds, embracing diversity, and celebrating cultural heritage.
Shreyas, a 6-year-old second-generation migrant, navigates a delicate balance between her home life and the outside world. While her deep affection for her family provides her with strength, the stares and whispers directed at her mother's sari evoke a sense of insecurity within her.

It is at that moment that the mesmerizing shimmer of Amma's sari guides her toward a profound realization—a realization of pride in her difference. Through this transformative encounter, Shreyas emerges stronger, more confident, and fully embracing the unique beauty that her mother's sari represents.

It serves as a testament to the power of storytelling, the significance of cultural heritage, and the importance of embracing our differences. This captivating tale will leave a lasting impression on hearts and minds, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of the world around us.
