Quiet Time with My Seeya

Dinalie Dabarera, illustrated by Dinalie Dabarera

Sona and her Sri Lankan grandfather, Seeya, do not share the same language, so her mother calls their time together quiet. Yet their days are full of activity: they play, garden, play video games, cook, eat, read, and go on adventures. Sona does not understand every word when Seeya reads to her, but she understands his meaning; he similarly understands her when she reads to him. Their relationship unfolds through shared experiences and play.
