"This is the perfect picture book for 

✨children and young readers who enjoy engaging and uplifting stories; 

✨educators and librarians who are looking to introduce children to stories of cultural diversity, social change, and the power of sports;

📚cultural awareness- to introduce students to the cultural and social dynamics of rural India and fostering an understanding of different lifestyles;

📚physical education and sports- teachers can organize a skateboarding workshop or demonstration to introduce students to the sport; 

📚and the story can be used to discuss global issues like poverty and inequality and how little acts of activism can bring about significant changes. Students can think about how they can make their communities better..."
