Reviews

A hOle book is always a reason to celebrate. And when it’s by Shabnam Minwalla—woohoo! A delightfully delish tale of a frothy, frilly dress, a resourceful eight-year-old, a princy who just can’t stop being a princy, and a gang of frock-wearing scamsters.

Author Information

Shabnam Minwalla is a mother of three teenagers, an ardent saree-shopper and a Mumbai-holic. She has spent most of her life with words-editing her school magazine, working as a journalist with the Times of India and writing non-fiction. What she most enjoys, though, is writing fiction. Many of her books for children and young adults-including When Jiya Met Urmila, Saira Zariwala is Afraid, Murder at Daisy Apartments and The Six Spellmakers of Dorabji Street-have won prestigious awards. Her non-fiction book on the Mumbai Neighbourhood of Colaba is very popular. Shabnam was a student at St Xavier's College in Mumbai and got her MA in Journalism at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. She was a Chevening Scholar at Wolfson College in Cambridge. Tanvi Bhat is a children’s book illustrator and author of over thirty titles with leading publishers including Pratham Books, Duckbill and Penguin Random House, Scholastic, Tulika Books, and Art1st, among others. Her picture book Jamini Roy’s Unbroken Lines (Art1st) was selected for the prestigious Parag Honour Book List, which recognizes outstanding children’s literature in India. Her picture book Ed Finds A Home by Alia Bhatt found a place on Amazon’s bestseller list. Working primarily in watercolours and gouache, Tanvi brings to life vibrant worlds and endearing characters that capture the magic of everyday life. Her illustrations are celebrated for their warmth and whimsy, inviting young readers to pause, wonder and imagine.
