Children will love this sweet sleep tale that builds their Hindi and English vocabulary. Every page includes Hindi language script, Romanized Hindi, and English language, which makes each language accessible to your whole family. Written and Illustrated by Nidhi Chanani, author of PASHMINA and illustrator of the forthcoming I WILL BE FIERCE, this board book is an essential addition to a diverse library.
Please listen to Nidhi’s podcast interview about SHUBH RAATRI DOST/GOOD NIGHT FRIEND, a new board book in which two children say goodnight in both Hindi and Engilsh to all of the animals in their Indian farm home.
From Matthew C Winner ” There’s an intimacy to sharing this moment with the characters in the book, as the sun goes down and as each goodnight offered is accompanied by thankfulness to what gift the object has given the children. Nidhi shares at one moment in our conversation the sentiment that caring for one another can look like sharing with someone or something and noticing when they are sharing with you. ”

Pashmina
Read PASHMINA’s starred reviews in the School Library Journal and Publisher’s Weekly. Also a wonderful review in Kirkus and the New York Times.
Priyanka Das has so many unanswered questions. Why did her mother abandon her home in India years ago? What was it like there? And most importantly, who is her father, and why did her mom leave him behind? But Pri’s mom avoids these questions—the topic of India is permanently closed.
For Pri, her mother’s homeland can only exist in her imagination. That is, until she find a mysterious pashmina tucked away in a forgotten suitcase. When she wraps herself in it, she is transported to a place more vivid and colorful than any guidebook or Bollywood film. But is this the real India? And what is that shadow lurking in the background? To learn the truth, Pri must travel farther than she’s ever dared and find the family she never knew.
In this heartwarming debut, Nidhi Chanani weaves a tale about hardship and self-discovery that is born from juggling two cultures and two worlds.
