"The beautiful illustrations by Skylar White show Nyla's vulnerability and pain, while Jasbinder Bilan's simple yet powerful words show Puloma's bravery in standing up for what's right. In shining a light on cruel traditions that might still exist in some areas of the world, this is a story to provoke thought, and maybe action." - BookTrust, Book of the Day
