Amma's Sari

As a second-generation migrant; 6-year-old Shreya's life tilts between her life at home and the outside world. While her love for family lifts her up; her spirits plummet at the stares and whispers that her mother's sari attracts.

Searching for balance; Shreya asks questions about her culture. But despite the beautiful stories her mother shares; Shreya's internal and external struggle continues. 
 
But when Shreya finds herself lost in a crowd; it's the shimmer of Amma's sari that leads her to finding pride in her difference.

Amma's Sari is a powerful reflection on connection with family; the acceptance of difference; and the celebration of cultural heritage. Perfect for ages 3 and up.
