What is namaste? This meditative, joyous little picture book gently investigates the word’s layers of meaning: a greeting, a yoga pose, a celebration, “the divine in me honouring the divine in you”.
- Imogen Russell-Williams, Guardian
This delightful book leaves the reader with a feeling of love and peace.
- Charlotte Eyre, Bookseller
The illustrations are outstanding as well as the lyrical text, and this is a wonderful way of bringing Indian culture closer to home.
Books for Keeps
