When a little girl loses her papa--a tailor who makes beautiful clothes--the silence in the house is overwhelming. But maybe she and her other dad can bring the house back to life, starting with a single thread.

The sound of Papa's sewing machine fills their home: Snip! Whir! Clank! Click, click, click! But then everything changes, and the house is silent. It has always been the three of them, doing things together: her helping Papa with his work when he grew tired; her visiting new places with Dad; the three of them reading together every night before bed. Now the girl and her dad are lost without Papa--until one day she has an idea about how she and Dad can bring the sound into their home again. Award-winning artist Aditi Anand makes her debut as an author-illustrator in this tender and moving picture book about family, loss, and remembrance--a poignant story full of love and hope, beautifully complemented by soft and glowing artwork.

Aditi Anand is an illustrator, author, and printmaker. She received a master's degree in children's book illustration from the Cambridge School of Art, in England, and won a V&A Illustration Award the same year. The Fabric of Us is her debut title as an author-illustrator. Aditi Anand lives in India.
