Hey there,
How’s the summer reading coming along? Amidst all the summer things to do, make sure you block a chunk of the day for reading with/to your kids. And kids observe us more than we would think! SO make sure you work on your reading skills this summer too- trust me- it is a habit you would never want to stop!
Would love to know your thoughts on this. Please write to me at [email protected] to let us know your feedback on the KSP Book Club newsletter and don’t forget to share it with your fellow parenting fraternity to help them find the best books for their kids and raise young readers!
And this week we had the incredible opportunity of interviewing Mr. Ruskin Bond on the eve of his birthday and boy-we were floored with the legend’s perspective of life and optimism! Stay tuned to the video on our YouTube channel.
And to celebrate the birthday of the legendary writer, on this week’s KSP Book Club Newsletter, we have recommended some of our favourite Ruskin Bond books for your kids. From 4-12 we have a variety, so make sure you skim through this list and add them to your child’s bookshelf.

What’s your book budget- for everyone in the family? Do you have a weekly or monthly allowance on how much you are willing to spend on books?
Not all have. And it’s awesome if you have a limit too. It’s just that make sure you encourage your kids to spend more on books and reading than on other stuff- simple.
And if you are looking to ways to save more while not cutting down on your reading time. Here is an awesome offer- only on Kidsstoppress!

Story Of The Week
Hey,
So this week in place of Conversation Starter, we are sharing a fun story with your kids. And who is it written by? One of our all time-favourite authors- Ruskin Bond!
Do you remember those Ruskin Bond stories you read in simpler times? The ones that brought out the nostalgia for a childhood that was completely fictitious? In his simple autobiographical style, he tells beautifully descriptive tales full of meaning and sometimes even a deep ponderous question at the end, all things that catch the eyes of budding young readers.
In this episode of I Am Not Bored, India’s leading Kids’ Podcast, Mansi Zaveri, the founder of Kidsstoppress reads to your kids A Special Tree by Ruskin Bond. It is a short story full of beautiful writing and great lessons.
Listen to the entire podcast and listen closely to answer the quiz at the end.
