Book Description
The story of a sensitive and talented girl who grows up to be one of India's foremost painters. It reads like a diary, and in fact includes actual lines from her childhood diaries. The seemingly random musings come together like deft strokes to sketch an intimate picture of her early years. Also featured are paintings she did when she was young and photographs taken by her father. The book traces her life till she sets sail for France on the journey for which she was born... to be an artist. At the end of the book is a section that introduces children to the life and work of the artist.
