Desert Girl, Monsoon Boy by Tara Dairman

4.0

Experience two opposite weather extremes in India through this thoughtful picture book. Each page shows the juxtaposition of two families that live in very different parts of India. The text is simple, but also conveys exactly what is happening to each family. Even though the weather for each family is extreme in different ways, you also see how very similar the experience is for them both. Ultimately, the two families unite on a mountain as they celebrate their safety and life. The diversity in this book is great and we found it to be very educational about other cultures.
