Monsoon Afternoon

Monsoon Afternoon

by Kashmira Sheth

It is monsoon season in India. Outside, dark clouds roll in and the rain starts to fall. As animals scatter to find cover, a young boy and his dadaji (grandfather) head out into the rainy weather. “The cyclical rhythms of the rain seasons echo the story’s larger themes of time’s passage and the links between generations.” — Booklist
