his mood, but nothing helps. When his mother finally comes home,
missing her hair, Ani's light gets brighter and brighter, chasing

mother shines through as the two enjoy their precious time
together, whether it's forever, or just for now. Includes a Note to
Parents and Caregivers explaining ways to help a child cope. This
sensitive, hopeful story will help kids explore their sadness when
a close family member is undergoing medical treatment, while
highlighting sources of light that can bring stability during
uncertain times. It is also a terrific resource for anyone who
wants to understand how coping has its ups and downs.
The book is an original research work, done in the year 2009-2010
at College of Home Science, Rajasthan Agricultural University,
Bikaner, Rajasthan, India. It actualizes the impact of local
dietary sources over commercial options in case of rectifying
dietary deficiencies. Pearl millet is the staple food of Rajasthan,
which is also the richest source of Iron among cereals; still the
prevalence of anemia in that region is considerably high.
Adolescent females are future carriers of our next generation and
they are extremely vulnerable for iron deficiency that also leads
to various forms of maternal, child morbidities, and even
mortalities. The study determines that developed product using
Processed Pearl Millet along with other iron rich foods, was at par
when compared with commercial iron folic acid tablets in correcting
hemoglobin levels of anemic adolescent girls residing in Bikaner
(Rajasthan, India). Hence, processing of pearl millet and its
inclusion in daily diet may be helpful in reducing the burden of
Anemia among Indian population.
