About The Book
In this family
We are a blend, a combination
of cornbread and roti,
of the Green Bay Packers and Bhangra…
This family has ancestors hailing from the Land of Five Rivers, the Emerald Isle, the Swiss Alps, and the Silk Road. When it’s time to greet the newest arrival, four generations around the globe—Mummy and Papa, bhaiyya, grandparents, and even Parnani—show her that while some might call their family mixed (biracial, adhi Indian, adhi white), there is nothing half and half about them. They are whole.
About The Illustrator
Meenal Patel is an artist, illustrator, designer, and children’s book author. She hopes the experiences and joy she infuses into her art will result in connection, belonging, and delight for someone else. Meenal has replanted herself in her home state of Minnesota, though part of her heart resides in California after spending many years in the Bay Area. Outside of the studio, she loves reading cookbooks, painting with her nieces, baking birthday cakes, and hiking amongst trees with her husband and sweet dog, Dosa.
