Mom's Review
Lost and Found at the Gurdwara offers both a seek-and-find and a story, set against the backdrop of Nagar Kirtan, a Sikh devotional celebration of processing through the town while singing. Little Darshan is excited for the festival, and we accompany her as she gets ready for the festival and helps her grandparents find misplaced items. Be sure to examine the endpapers, so you know what each item looks like. (And there is a QR code for adults to scan on the last page to unlock the answers, thank goodness!) Darshan's enthusiasm for the celebration is palpable, and readers feel enveloped by the preparations and festivities, so rich are the illustrations! Lost and Found at the Gurdwara is a must-read for young seek-and-find fans, and an excellent festival-preparation-story in its own right. Perfect to read before any community celebration or religious festival!
