Little Satya lives by the Ganga in Banaras and longs to row her own boat
on the river, just like her father. But he says shes not old enough or
strong enough. The spirited girl cant wait. . . One day, she makes a
little paper boat and that night, she dreams and drifts into a watery
world. But what is her father doing there? As the story unfolds, the
finely detailed illustrations and their colours heighten its magical
quality and brilliantly capture the hustle and bustle of the Banaras
riverfront.
