This perfectly captures the joy children can find in the simplest of things. It's so pure and playful, with a beautiful set of illustrations!

Enjoyable book -- as an adult, I found it a little instructional? didactic? more focused on explaining culture than telling story -- however, I can also see where kids might need that level of context for the story to flow, and the story was interesting. I liked Aliya's gradual growth, and I liked her family's emphasis on how making your own choices within your faith is part of celebrating faith rather than reason for judgement from the outside.

Feathers are appendages that form an outer covering on vertebrates. They provide birds with waterproofing and thermal insulation along with aiding in flight. Feather coloration helps birds communicate and can also provide protection.
Read the recently published picture book for children, then learn more at the website:
LALI’S FEATHER by Farhana Zia tells the charming story of a child who finds a feather and shows her bird friends all its uses. Set in India, this universal story is both inspirational and imaginative.
ALL ABOUT FEATHERS is an interactive learning experience from The Cornell Lab. Users learn about how feathers are built, what feathers do, and the role of feathers through time. Readers even meet a feather scientist.

This book was delightfully illustrated and sweet. The language used was fun and I enjoyed that it mixed in some Hindi sayings. The illustrations were really gorgeous and helped keep my daughter engaged in the story. We both really loved the illustration of the peacock. The story, one of the importance of something simple that others might not understand, was simple and easy to follow.

I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
