In this short and sweet picture book, three siblings celebrate the Indian holiday of Raksha Bandhan, in which siblings celebrate their love and respect for each other with gifts. Told in the familiar rhythm of "Frère Jacques," and featuring warm, colorful, and culturally specific digital illustrations, this simple tale includes instructions for making a rakhi, or thread bracelet, traditionally given to brothers by their sisters.
