Nidhi Chanani likes to dream kind and creative dreams. She’s the author of the graphic novel Pashmina and the bilingual board book Shubh Raatri Dost/Good Night Friend, as well as the illustrator of the picture book I Will Be Fierce and, most recently, Binny’s Diwali, written by Thrity Umrigar. Nidhi draws and dreams in the San Francisco Bay Area with her husband, child, and cat.
