Mumtaz Embroiders Her Dreams

 
Jolly Rohatgi (Author)
Synopsis Young Mumtaz has come from her village to Lucknow to learn new stitches for the chikankari that she and the other women in her village do. Thanks to her friend Munna, Mumtaz learns even more than she had imagined! Jolly Rohatgi’s sensitive story is illustrated by Ram Soni through sanjhi, the art of paper-cutting. Each book in this series of four, created by the Dastkari Haat Samiti, looks at the life of a child in a rural artisan family from different parts of India. Local forms of painting and craftwork have been used to illustrate the stories so that children can enjoy and appreciate varied cultural expressions.
