“Great book, we really love all the fictional silly characters. We genuinely think all kinds of kids would like to read this, and think it would make a really good animated film as well.”

“Dixit has skillfully given these folktales a fresh and contemporary resonance while remaining true to their original spirit. […] Duncan Major’s loose, organic and free-flowing illustrations with their subdued, earth-toned palette capture a sense of the enduring and universal nature of these tales as well as the elements that give them their more uniquely Newfoundland twist.”

“The familiarity and memories it evoked while reading this novel was something I really loved as well. Although I am not of Indian ancestry and have not grown up around Indian culture, I lent the book to a friend who is and asked them what they thought of it. The reply stated that he only had good things to say about the book and that The Tales of Dwipa brought back memories of his youth.”
