Do you love bindis? Do your kids play with them? This picture book is for you!
Bindis can be big and small, red and blue, long and sparkly! Join Noor and Neel as their tiger friend Moochhar Singh leads them to a land filled with colourful characters, all of them wearing their favourite bindis! The story is written in three lines of text - Hindi script, English transliteration, as well as English translation. So whether you already read and speak Hindi… just speak it … or are new to it entirely - Meri Bindi gives busy parents a fun and imaginative bedtime resource to share with their children. It’s a wonderful way to cement language learning early in your child’s life. The first of the My Duniya series of bilingual Hindi-English books, Meri Bindi is filled with imaginative handmade illustrations and extra pages of Hindi vocabulary.
