Description
Geeta's day begins as most children's do. But when she sets off to school, passing the "kamar" at the forge, the "mali" weaving garlands of flowers to offer to the temple gods, her world begins to beat to the distinctive rhythm of Indian village life. This book is part of the series A Child's Day, photographic information books concentrating on the daily lives and experiences of children in countries around the world, published in association with Oxfam.
