Ari (Bengali)

Author : Vaishali Shroff
Illustrator : Kavita Singh Kale

Ari may be shy, but he knows he will make a wonderful lion in the class play. But he is neither noticed nor chosen. Then, suddenly in his room a roaring, growling, prowling creature comes to life! The flat illustrative style with its strong kitschy palette gets away from usual depictions of the ‘soft, sensitive' child, and captures the energy and fun of play-acting.

Sure to touch many a heart

The author has done a great job of depicting how the child gets over his own limitations with a little help from his mother, who knows him well... With bold illustrations and minimal text per page, the book is sure to touch many a heart. Saffron Tree
