- Book Type:
- Description: There are many chickens, ants, pots and snails that are different. The verses say how many – but which, and how? Manjula Padmanabhan takes spotting odd ones out to the next merry level of stimulation and challenge, while remaining true to her pet theme of identity and plurality. The brilliantly rendered pictures and designs point to ways of perceiving similarity and difference through structure, detail and perspective. Children, and grown-ups, too, will have their cognitive skills excitingly teased.

Go Go Flamingo
- Author Name:
Priya Kuriyan +1
- Book Type:
- Description: A flock of flamingos flies south in search of food and drink. What they find in the water causes a hullabaloo… They get draped and decked in unspooled tape, rubber tyres, shoes, plastic bags, syringe-needles, even rear-view mirrors! Unaware of their doom, they break into a dance in a confused trance. Priya Kuriyan brings the irony alive through stunning visuals. Real objects imaginatively placed together with her drawings create a lifelike three-dimensional effect. Along with Devashish Makhija’s brilliant verse soaked in satire, they paint a telling picture – of the violence unthinking humans inflict on the natural world through hazardous waste.

A delightfully long story with a mix of magic and reality. Bolu speaks when he walks. When not walking, he becomes quiet. If someone tells him, Be Quiet', Bolu will first stop talking and then he will stop walking. If someone tells him, "Stop". He will stop walking, then he will stop talking. He is like a Patrangi that talks only while flying. She is quiet when perched. She must get doubly tired when speaking and flying. So, she rests doubly...by sitting and quieting down. Vinod ji constructs a comprehensive world. He constructs his own language. When you read him, you will feel as if you are listening for the first time. As it is said in this manner for the first time. Illustrator Taposhi Ghoshal fills the magical reality with magic.
