When a little boy paints his nails with his mum's nail polish, he
discovers the most important thing of all: the magic of being his
true self. As the long Indian summer days stretch ahead of him, a
young boy looks forward to his favourite time -
painting-your-nails-time. He knows that when he dips his brush into
those magical bottles of nail polish, he will find a colour to
express his every mood and feeling. Purple is the colour of magic
and mystery. White is the colour of endless possibilities. At
times, his Papa frowns and says, "What have you done to your
nails?" At other times, he says, "Why don't you paint on paper
instead?" But the little boy knows that painting his nails makes
his hands look beautiful. This colour-filled story celebrates the
joy of finding out who you are and embracing the courage to be
yourself.

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. The book includes a
glossary of Indian terms and a note about the saris made in this
region.
This book tells the stories of ten mysterious people, styles and
objects in Indian art from the prehistoric period to the present
day-and in the process, it captures some of the diversity and range
of the very large canvas we call Indian art. The stories told here
include those of: The Bhimbetka paintings The evolution of the
Buddha The Ajanta caves The Kailashanatha temple The Pithora
paintings Women artists of the Mughal era Bani Thani Indian yellow
Manaku of Guler The Sripuranthan Shiva Nataraja Mamta Nainy
explores diverse artistic periods, explains different art forms,
and gives insights into the lives of artists working in different
times and spaces, one curious case at a time.
