Roop and the River Crossing

Product Description

Roop carries her newest toy―a kaleidoscope―everywhere. The world from her kaleidoscope looks split up . . . and so does her world. Around her, unfamiliar words echo: India. Pakistan. Partition. Home.

Words that sound distant from her reality, until one night changes everything. Roop finds herself at a riverbank, one that she must cross to find her home―her new home.

Award-winning author Samina Mishra tells a poignant tale of a dark chapter in history. Through Roop’s journey, she weaves a story of connections, resilience and finding an anchor in turbulent times.
