The Many Colors of Harpreet Singh

Supriya Kelkar

Harpreet Singh wears a patka, a turban worn by some Sikh boys, in colors that match his feelings. After his family moves from a warm beach home to a snowy place, he feels shy and isolated at his new school and chooses white patkas. A classmate’s lost yellow hat leads to a conversation about his headwear. That connection helps Harpreet find courage and begin wearing his full range of colors again.
