Best of All: The Magical Mix That’s You

This joyful picture book explores what makes us who we are.

The tale begins by shining a light on the qualities we inherit from our parents and grandparents, such as ‘mother’s bright eyes and her joyful wide grin’ and ‘father’s big heart and his kindness within’. It then moves on to show how elements of our cultural heritage, as well as our personal experiences, feed into who we become as individuals.

Towards the end of the story, the focus shifts to what the future holds, and how each of us can shine and become whoever we want to be. 

The lyrical, rhyming text is perfect to read aloud and will encourage young children to join in with the tale. Stunning, richly coloured artwork features throughout and readers will love poring over exquisite, imaginative details on every page.  

Inspired by the author’s personal experience of raising her children to celebrate both their British and Indian heritage, this is an unusual, thought-provoking and uplifting tale.
