"Ammi weaves the most beautiful saris but never gets to wear any of them. Her two little daughters decide to do something about it - break their piggy bank! But when there isn't enough money to buy Ammi a sari, the two girls must work together to find a solution. Will they be able to buy Ammi the gift she so deserves? With a text full of heart, and bright, cheerful artwork, this story brings readers into the home of a weaver's family in Kaithoon, India, where the creation of saris is an art form."--Dust jacket flap. |
