Children's Picture Book
Originally created when Siona Talekar was just seven years old, I Know What You Do When I Go to School is a whimsical and heartfelt story that captures a child’s perspective on what their mother does while they’re away. The young narrator imagines her mother indulging in chocolate cake, watching movies, and enjoying a carefree day. However, the reality is quite different—her mom is actually a pediatric oncologist, working hard to care for children battling cancer. Now at thirteen, Siona has refined the book’s illustrations and storytelling, creating a beautiful celebration of creativity, family, and love.
