PUBLISHING NEXT BOOK AWARDS 2019 FOR BEST CHILDREN'S BOOK OF THE YEAR (RUNNER-UP)
"We are all stuck in roles defined by different conditions – age, gender, religion, culture, caste – the list never ends. Soda and Bonda gently shake that all up and form a welcome platform to discuss differences and acceptance. I do not think it is limited to a toddler picture book. It transcends ages and should be read by all. The illustrations made me fall in love with my mad band of dogs and a cat all over again!"

"A little story about big things, Soda and Bonda deftly explores difference, acceptance, and the contours of friendship. The animality of the characters is beautifully illustrated, reminding us of the connections and spaces between animal and human."
