About this listen

The creator of Little Owl's Night explores and celebrates the complexities of what makes us who we are in this comforting and thoughtful picture book, adapted for audio.

A young narrator describes herself: a girl, a granddaughter, Indian, and American. Soon, we see the young girl as a plethora of things: selfish and generous, mean and kind, brave and mischievous. While many of these qualities oppose each other, the context makes it abundantly clear that she speaks the truth. She is a walking contradiction, and that is precisely what makes her both a unique individual and an essential piece of the greater world around her. Divya Srinivasan shows what makes us human and proud to be who we are.

Critic Reviews

"An outstanding and affirming story.... Srinivasan’s latest offering is a universal story that belongs in all collections.” (School Library Journal, starred review)

“A picture book celebrating the nuances of living with multiple identities.” (Kirkus Reviews)

“A charming primer for emerging readers that, when scaffolded by adult guidance, can also start conversations around identity with older readers.” (Booklist)
