What stood out...was his

Malu
Bhalu
Best for bedtime re-reads with its unpretentious verse and imagery. Simple
and well-intentioned, the story reads like a long poem, but with enough
action to keep the pages turning. As in 'into the water – splash! – to
land'. But there's a moral too for first-timer child, and each of us. The
story was born out of a story-telling session the writer once had with her
spastic son. In the book, they relate the thrill of having stumbled on a
message so meaningful.

rhymes have an infectious lilt and musically echo through the ear much after
the reading is over. The touching bond between mother and child is sure to
appeal to the young.

Bhalu is a delightful story in verse...
Tulika makes possible an encounter with the art of Ilango or the telling
photographs of Raghgavendra Rao or the contemporary style of Ranjan De. Theirs
is an ongoing search for representation and excellence.

Why
are you afraid to hold my hand?
