The monsoons are here and that can mean so many different things to different people. Some people are forced to stay indoors, while others go crazy jumping up and down in muddy puddles. Some love to gorge on hot chai and pakodas while others chew on roasted corn as they gaze fondly at the pouring rain. Whichever type of person you are there is no denying the fact that the rains and the monsoons bring out the best (and most creative!) in us.
On KSP Radio, to welcome the monsoons, we have a special treat. We invited Sakshi Singh who wrote the gorgeous book Jalebi Jingles to read a few poems out for us. She did and boy! did it help set the mood!
About If I Could Teach My Teacher:
If I Could Teach My Teacher is a collection of wonderful poems by Sakshi Singh. Inspired by her childhood days, each poem in If I could Teach My Teacher describes the joys of childhood and the innocence that comes with it. From small things around the house like a box of ribbons to fun things like a snow fall, Sakshi's poems will get you all nostalgic. The poems follow a set rhythm and a simple pattern that dives straight into the narrative and explores the mind of the reader. If you are raising a mini poetry lover- we can't recommend this book enough!
