Sudha murty...is one my most favouriteeee author. I loved her .... I loved her stories ....i loved her books ...i loved her ....for being an inspiration... I loved her alot to alotttt..... While reading ... I feel like my grandmother is narrating a story for me. Gopi is cute ,smart and a handsome hunk. And he love his ajji alot 💖. So you are wondering .....about who is Gopi? So Gopi is a dog . Who loves to play , eat , and disturb his favourites to seek some attention and care. Although the whole book revolves around gopi's life , his views , his thinking and people around him. Completely agree why people love sudha mam's work . As her stories is based on almost normal incidents . Which everyone can relate at some point. Major factor of best selling is connectivity. If reader connects with authors work. He /she might love to read more such authors work . In my case I loved her work and i always choose her books over anything. This book not only good in writing but although the illustration is marvellous and clean. Words are sober yet lucid to understand. Reader enjoys her work to core . Flowing and a page turner book. Definitely recommend this.
