Themes: Empathy, compassion, respecting differences, diversity

Maya is new at school, and to the dismay of her classmates, she’s different. She eats chapatti & apple rolls for lunch, has a funny backpack, and has very short hair. But no one knows about Maya’s unique journey. The book celebrates differences, and reminds us of why it’s important to ask questions — there’s more to a person’s story than just their appearance.
