Why read it?

2 authors picked Goodnight Ganesha as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I love children's books and Goodnight Ganesha is an especially beautiful, well written, and delightful one.

This book has truly beautiful art by Poonam Mistry. I find Indian and Hindu culture fascinating and this book brings it to you through the eyes of a child (or two children I should say as it’s about siblings). There is a glossary of Hindu terms in the back which I do appreciate. It is written almost as an Indian tribute to Goodnight Moon which is of course a classic.
