Reach for this book when your child is starting to ask deeper questions about their family heritage or feels like they don't quite fit into the 'box' their relatives have built for them. It is a vibrant bridge for children navigating the tension between traditional family expectations and their own emerging spiritual or personal interests. Through the eyes of thirteen-year-old Maya, the story explores how a family can be both a source of immense love and a source of restrictive secrets. The book beautifully handles themes of cultural identity, the complexity of faith, and the importance of healing generational rifts. It is a perfect choice for middle-grade readers who enjoy stories where everyday life in a bustling city is touched by a hint of the divine and the ancestral.
