Excuse me, is this India?

von ,

Excuse Me, Is This India? is a roving travelogue through a child’s imagination. Drifting off to sleep beneath a picture-quilt made by a globe-trotting aunt, the book’s young narrator becomes a bright blue mouse, swept away on an unexpected trip to India. Directed this way and that, she discovers that the enjoyment of the journey is what makes the trip, not the destination.
Illustrated with exquisite quilts made from Indian textiles by well-known German and Swiss quilter Anita Leutwiler, this book of brilliant riddling verse captures the surreal mixture of places, people, and creatures that make up India.
