In this picture book, lovely illustrations depict the excitement of a Mehndi party and pre-wedding celebrations. Inclusive of a range of characters and led by a South Asian little boy, Ravi, who at first was excluded from the Mehndi party, this story shows how he not only later becomes included, but he even designs a pattern for his sister to have painted on her hands. A lovely exploration of Mehndi parties and pre-wedding celebrations in this story about finding your talents and being included.
