"A strong depiction of family, this story shows how meaningful traditional clothing can be." -Kirkus Reviews
"The continuous, loving exchange heightens the intergenerational warmth that’s extended in Jaeggi's delicate watercolors, particularly in scenes of Dadima and the girls unfurling luxurious lengths of cloth. Young listeners will want to follow the appended, illustrated instructions demonstrating how to wrap a sari." -Booklist
"Soft watercolor paintings capture the magnificent fabrics of Dadima's saris and accentuate this loving story of a grandmother and her two granddaughters." -School Library Journal
