This book appears to have been nurtured by the warmth of the desert winds and the colours of sand. The empathy and sensitivity in the relationship between humans and animals in the desert-land depicted in the story touches the reader deeply. Images of the travelling camel caravans visiting my city every summer came alive in my mind while reading the book.
Camel owners usually decorate and adorn their animals with love and care—which is vividly picturized in the illustrations in this book. The traditional attire of the dry and sandy parts of Rajasthan are also shown beautifully.
