Aprašymas

From picture-book author Shireen Lalji and New York Times bestselling artist Lucy Fleming, in Jaya's Something Special, a little girl discovers what it really means to be special, with the help of the important women in her life. 

Zeena Masi and Aunty Maria are getting married, and the house is packed with aunties, uncles and cousins. Everyone seems to be busy with all kinds of special, important jobs to prepare for the wedding. Jaya wants a special job, too, and she tries her very best to be part of the big, exciting day.

But everything she does just goes wrong somehow – she drops a heavy tray of sweets, gets tangled up in fairy lights and splodges her mehndi patterns. She can't seem to get anything right. It makes her feel so . . . small. 

Just when she feels at her smallest and least-special, some wise words from her beloved aunties show her that she doesn’t have to DO anything special – she IS special, no matter what. 

This empowering book is a wonderful celebration of the magic of extended families, and the unique connections between aunties and nieces that make life feel that extra bit special.
