What book are we talking about:
The book we are discussing in #KSPBookClub today is Sacked: Folk Tales You Can Carry Around by famous children's author Deepa Agarwal and is published by Harper Collins. Buy the book here.
What is this book about:
Deepa Agarwal- an award-winning children's book writer knows how to get the pulse of her audience right. With this book for your 6+ kids, she presents a collection of stories with characters both real and imaginary- intertwined in interesting plots with an engaging storyline, that will make reading time fun for your kids. Each based out of a different city and town across India, the stories bring out a local flavour- thus making them more relatable with the young audience.
Why is this book on our shelf:
- Stories that are based in faraway lands are fun to read, but the ones that are rooted in your country- places your kids have been to- are more easy to relate and the kids find them easier to enjoy. That's why we love folktales for kids- and this book does justice to that!
- Deepa Agarwal's style of writing has won many a children's hearts before and here too, she aces it with her varied characterizations in the tales. The illustrations- quirky make the stories more interesting for the little minds.
- With a collection of stories- the best part is, each of them belongs to a different genre- one makes you laugh, one makes you think, some on women power and so on. This will help expose your kids to different types of stories and not just zero in one genre for the entire book.
