&#9733; "As cheerful and dynamic as a comic book . . .&#160;Funny details fill the page, but at its heart, the story takes on selfishness and finds a way to make everyone happy. A richly executed comedic piece, this hides tenderness in rough bark but is a real softie when it comes to charm. With funny wordplay and pacing to delight with every turn of the page, this one&rsquo;s a must."&#160;&mdash;SLJ, starred review"This story seems all fun and games, from Stone&rsquo;s could-would refrain and long string of wood-related wordplay to Lowery&rsquo;s clear-lined panels, which move between the girl&rsquo;s fantasies and Wood&rsquo;s grumpy reality. But ultimately, the payoff is anything but trivial, as the wooden protagonist finds a warm feeling in helping another."&#160;&mdash;Publishers Weekly"Stone and Lowery team up for some serious wordplay and comic book&ndash;like styling, and while this leans more into punny humor than technical literacy skills, the inclusion of figurative language brings kids into the conceptual world of words as opposed to the mechanical."&#160;&mdash;BCCB

It&rsquo;s the Hindu holiday Raksha Bandhan, when sisters give brothers bracelets to ask for their protection from harm. This year, Bina is old enough to make bracelets for her three older brothers: Vijay, Siddharth, and Arjun. To prepare, she asks each brother about their favorite and least favorite colors. At the craft store, Bina and her mother pick out blue, orange, and green beads along with some special beads that represent each of the brother&rsquo;s interests: a book, a basketball, and a pair of musical notes. When they return from the store, and with the help of her dog, Tara, Bina gets to work. For each bracelet, she creates a pattern using the colors that each brother likes&mdash;something that can be confusing to remember and results in a few do-overs. Eventually, Bina creates three different bracelets using three different color patterns, each one perfect for her brothers. On Raksha Bandhan, Bina&rsquo;s gifts are a hit&mdash;and so is the gift that the brothers give Bina, even if it doesn&rsquo;t necessarily follow a pattern. Basing a plot on Raksha Bandhan, which has come under criticism for its gendered emphasis on girls&rsquo; needing protection from boys, feels like a strange way to introduce a spunky female protagonist like Bina. Still, the text does seamlessly integrate the mathematical concept of patterning into a fun and accurate modern twist on an ancient religious tradition. The colorful illustrations perfectly capture Bina&rsquo;s impish spirit as well as her love for her family. An author&rsquo;s note expands on both Raksha Bandhan and patterns.This culturally relevant, STEM-savvy picture book showcases a strong female protagonist. &mdash;Kirkus Reviews Bina loves her three brothers, even though they  can be annoying, and every year, their family celebrates Raksha Bandhan,  a Hindu custom that affirms the bond between brothers and sisters.  According to the tradition, sisters tie bracelets on their brothers&rsquo;  wrists to protect them, and in return, brothers give their sisters  gifts. This year, Bina decides she will make the bracelets herself,  using beads of their favorite colors along with an &ldquo;extra-special&rdquo; bead  to symbolize their unique interests. Here Bina&rsquo;s task takes on a  mathematical twist as she arranges the beads using an every-other-one  pattern. Readers will enjoy being swept up into Bina&rsquo;s conundrum, along  with her constant companion, Tara the dog, as she tries different color  combinations of beads. The vibrant colors and perky tone of this  culturally specific yet universally appealing book make for a fun  read-aloud with a bit of a math lesson sneaked in. Back matter explains  Raksha Bandhan and suggests some fun activities. &mdash;Booklist For the Hindu holiday of Raksha Bandhan, which celebrates the bond  between siblings, Bina, who has warm brown skin and dark wavy pigtails,  sets out to make her three older brothers&mdash;book-loving Vijay, musical  Siddharth, and athletic Arjun&mdash;bracelets to keep them safe. There&rsquo;s just  one thing she must keep in mind: each brother has one color he favors  and one that he doesn&rsquo;t. After Mommy helps Bina buy green, blue, and  orange beads, the girl sets out to make individualized bracelets,  relying on the family dog for emotional support. LaRocca&rsquo;s prose is  accessible, with plenty of dialogue, and Prabhat&rsquo;s digital art charms  via vivid, dynamic spreads. This latest installment of Charlesbridge&rsquo;s  Storytelling Math series proves both educational and appealing. Back  matter includes an author&rsquo;s note and an explanation of the patterns  involved in Bina&rsquo;s bracelet making. &mdash;Publishers Weekly
