When Jiya Met UrmilaWhen Jiya meets Urmila, she sees a loud girl with a fierce expression and too-bright clothes. Urmila sees a snooty girl with a dull dress and no spunk. Can they ever be friends?
Tamara Serukur, Grade 6B –
Tootsie Lama is independent, clear-headed, and she is a little girl with a big plan to make her own thukpa. This book is enjoyable, engaging, and delivers the message of kindness. I would recommend this book to the age group of 8-10 years because of Ishan Trivedi’s delightful images and the way Stuti Agarwal portrays the imaginative and courageous Tootsie. What I found inspiring is that at such a young age, Tootsie is spontaneous and courteous.
