The day young Guru Nanak is given a handful of coins; he sets out to make a smart buy... but just around the bend he finds something even better to "trade" for. With clink-clink coins, bubble-bubble stew, pat-pat rotis, and splish-splash water, this gentle picture book shows how coins can become comfort-and how kindness can be the truest bargain of all. Perfect for bedtime and classroom read-aloud. It invites children to notice needs, choose courage, and find joy in helping others.
