Author Radha Paudel released the book in Jumla by presenting a copy to Jumla-based Karnali Community Resource Library.

After her job with the safe motherhood program ended in Jumla, Radha decided to stay back to serve the Jumli women. Her dedication to the social sector has won her numerous awards including “Woman Peacemaker-2012” from University of San Diego and “N- peace Award 2012” from UNDP.
“I am indebted to all the readers for accepting my book with such love and appreciation,” she said. “With this English edition, I hope the story of Karnali will reach more readers beyond the Nepali readership.”
