Anjali is the author of the children’s book, Why We Eat With Our Hands. She wrote this book as a gift for her daughter Nyla. She wanted her daughter to have a book that not only could she see herself in, but also one that describes the rich beauty of Indian culture. Why We Eat With Our Hands is beautifully illustrated by first time children’s book illustrator Shelley Seguinot. The book takes readers on a magical journey with Nyla as she learns why Indian people eat with their hands.
