this touching picture-book story of love, loss and acceptance is illustrated with glowing tenderness and warmth * Guardian *
Filled with heart, hope and the joy of creativity -- Serena Patel
A moving portrayal of grief... Mhasane's clever illustrations reflect the boy's sadness, and how life and joy let the colour back in * The Bookseller *
An extraordinary work for every shelf * School Library Journal *
Via Sirdeshpande's restrained but deeply empathic narrative voice and Mhasane's digitally enhanced colored pencil and pastel pictures, which capture light in almost incandescent colors, this proves a moving tribute to the role of mentors and memory in a young artist's life, as well as to what time and attention can bring about * Publishers Weekly *
