What families say

He asked for the Ganesha one three nights running. The Hindi page is the first thing my mother read to him on a video call.
Priya S. · San Jose · Aarav, 4Early-family feedback
She chose the second ending and then wanted to see the first one too. Both are printed in the book. That is the part I did not expect.
Rohan & Neha · Pune · Meera, 6Early-family feedback
Beside the hero, not as the god. I did not know how much I needed someone to say that until I read it.
Kavitha R. · London · Veer, 3Early-family feedback
The buttons are big enough for my finger. That is all I ask of a phone.
