Podcast #092 For my ninety-second Dream Gardens children’s books podcast, I interviewed author Anita Nahta Amin about the novel  Snow &amp; Rose by Emily Winfield Martin. Martin’s novel is a re-telling of the fairy tale “Snow and Rose” in which two sisters encounter enchanted places and strange characters in their search for their missing father. A magical and engaging story full of Martin’s distinctive illustrations. Anita Nahta Amin is author of several chapter books including The Legacy of Rashmi Bazaar. Her picture book Raja’s Pet Camel: The Magic of Hope was published last year. You can find her website at www.anitaaminbooks.com Podcasts are available on iTunes, Stitcher, and Spotify. Please link, share, comment, write a review or subscribe. Let me know what you think! If you are interested in participating in the Dream Gardens podcast, send me a request through my contact page. My next podcast will be with author Ann Burg about the novel The Hundred Dresses by  Eleanor Estes. It will be published on Monday, February  1, 2021. The post Snow &amp; Rose: An interview with Anita Nahta Amin appeared first on Dream Gardens.

Snow & Rose: An interview with Anita Nahta Amin

Raja's Pet Camel The Magic of Hope written by author Anita Nahta Amin and illustrated by Parwinder Singh is a wonderful story about a young boys journey finding his forever pet, Kamal. It's also a story that is educational and helps children learn more about Indian culture.  The story begins with Raja walking home from school and finding "a lone baby camel crying". What does he do? Raja moves cautiously towards the baby camel, who is at first scared until she spots Raja's shiny lunchbox. The pair immediately hit it off by playing tag and hide and seek. Raja decides to bring his pet camel home and hopes that his father will accept Kamal as their new pet. His father, Bapu is skeptical but decides to let his son keep Kamal until someone claims her. Raja is overjoyed and has hope that Kamal can stay. However, as time goes on, Kamal becomes quite a handful! He becomes a trouble maker around the house and Raja's father decides to sell him at the local fair. What will Raja do to keep Kamal? Read the book to find out!
