Sadiq has a dream—he wants to stitch beautiful, colorful patterns on rugs. But in his Kashmiri community, stitching is not something boys are expected to do. They raise livestock, not needles and thread. With quiet determination, Sadiq sets out to follow his passion and preserve a fading shepherd craft.
\nWritten by Mamta Nainy and illustrated in delicate watercolours by Niloufer Wadia, this gentle and inspiring story challenges gender norms and celebrates the courage to follow one’s dreams.
