  1. Aishwarya Jeggan

    The book’s art is phenomenal. However, the narrative jumps around a bit, making it hard to follow at times. Still a valuable resource, though.

  2. Vaibhav Kumar

    I was moved by the stories shared in this book. It’s a great conversation starter about identity and perseverance. A must-read.

  3. Ayush Jain

    Good book for understanding the history of the slave trade and its impact. A must-read. Should be a mandatory book to be read in school.

  4. Risav Mondal

    A solid introduction to a complex topic. The book provided a good starting point for discussions. The artwork really enhanced the story.

  5. Ruchie Gautam

    Engaging and educational! It opened my eyes to aspects of history I hadn’t considered. This book made me proud of black history and traditions.

  6. Abhishek Gargvansi

    While the premise is good, some of the information felt a bit biased. It’s important to have discussions about historical context.

  7. Shreya Gupta

    An okay book. It’s informative, but I wish it had focused a bit more on solutions and positivity instead of just the pain.

  8. Akash Ankit

    I had mixed feelings. Some parts were beautifully done, while others felt rushed. Could have been better developed overall.

  9. Aditya Singh

    Important, but not perfect. I believe this is necessary and every one should read it for perspective.

  10. Garima Sharma

    I appreciated the unique perspective, though I found some of the language a bit advanced for my child. Great for sparking important conversations.

  11. Esha Pareek

    Wonderful book! It tells an important story and has amazing illustrations that will keep children engaged. I learned something new too!

  12. Mohammad Ahmed Karim

    A necessary book, but be prepared to discuss difficult topics. My kids had many questions. It is good history lesson.

  13. Lavika Maheshwari

    A powerful and important story. The illustrations are beautiful, but the historical context is quite heavy for younger readers. Overall, a worthwhile read.

  14. Gaurang Athalye

    Beautifully illustrated and well-written! ‘Born on the Water’ offers a critical look at history and heritage. Highly recommend for older kids.

  15. Kamya Singh

    This book is a must-have for every child’s library. It’s an honest portrayal of history. Some parts were a bit confusing, but overall informative.

  16. Kartikey Gupta

    Excellent resource for educators and parents. It presents challenging history in an accessible way. The kids in my class loved it!
