Ari

by #N/A

When the teacher announces that the class will stage The Lion and the Mouse, Ari is thrilled. He knows heÕll make a wonderful lion Ð even his name means ÔlionÕ! But shy little Ari is neither noticed nor chosen. He goes home disappointed, but suddenly in his room a roaring, growling, prowling creature comes to lifeÉ and a small, squeaky one too! The flat illustrative style with its strong kitschy palette gets away from usual depictions of the Ôsoft, sensitiveÕ child, and captures the energy and fun of play-acting. Vishali Shroff is a writer and story teller whose work has been featured in magazines, anthologies, CBSE readers and childrenÕs readers by other publishers. She has also written Raindrops for Tulika. Her son Arinjay, is the inspiration behind this story. Animator and Illustrator Kavita Singh KaleÕs captivating pictures fill the pages of many Tulika Books, from the whacky Avneet AuntyÕs Mobile Phone and the award winning My Facebook Friends to her latest Ranganna
