There's a wedding tomorrow! And one little girl sits patiently while her mother tenderly applies intricate, delicate henna designs on her hands. As she does, she shares family stories-about weddings, monsoons, and ancestors long gone. The little girl must be careful to protect her hands as the henna dries-one smudge could ruin a story! After a whole night of anticipation, when the flakes are washed away, what will they reveal? With lyrical text, this poignant story blooms with heart and connects us to our roots, sweetly reminding us of the garden of love we curate with those closest to us.
