A young girl finds the magic, power, and history of wearing a bindi for the first time, in this moving and lyrical picture book debut from Gita Varadarajan. There in the mirror, I see a shining star.
My mother’s joy, my father’s pride.
And then I see something else:
I see me.
Divya is scared to put on the bindi for the first time. What if she gets made fun of? What will it feel like? But Amma is there to reassure her. Together they look inside Amma’s special box to find the perfect bindi. And as Divya gazes in the mirror she discovers a new side of herself.
She is stronger than ever.
Gita Varadarajan crafts a powerful story about belonging, embracing your heritage, and believing in yourself.
Archana Sreenivasan's vibrant and magical illustrations bring to life this journey of self-discovery.
My Bindi is a universal message of the importance finding oneself and celebrating the unique beliefs and experiences that make us who we are.
