Mrs. Seth,
So good to find one more Indian American authors whose work I can introduce to our children. Just read “Keeping Corner”. Was your great grandma principal at Kapadwanj girls school? You have mentioned my hometown, Balasinor, in your book. Incidentally, my grat-grandfather was Diwan in Bhavnagar. best wishes.
Hi Purvi,
Thanks for your kind words. My Great-aunt was principal at Kapadvanj Kanyashala. I also had some relatives in Balasinor and I visited it a couple of times when i was young. Who was your great-grandfather? From preschool to forth grade I studied at Dakshinamurti Balmandir and my family must know your greatgrandfather. My email address is ksheth@tds.net.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Best,
Kashmira
