About the Author

Hi, I'm Bijal! I was born in India and raised in the US. I have always been fascinated by the dichotomy of being raised in these two cultures—the little bit of holding on, the little bit of assimilation—and everything in between; that's how Laxmi was born. Writing has always been a huge passion of mine, but I never thought my first book would be an illustrated book. But today, I couldn't love Laxmi more, and I hope you love her too.
