Summer Camp At The Zoo

In my childhood, one of the most interesting games that I played was to assimilate children for storytelling sessions and act out the sequences.

Many a time, I would enact clearly my imaginative stories with much emotion.

Though I have been writing ever since my college days, it was only after the birth of my daughter that children’s literature attracted my attention.

I have written children’s stories in English, and I also enjoy writing for children in Tamil as well. When my Tamil Books on children’s literature were published, I was very much motivated.

Whenever I narrate stories to school children, I feel as if I belong to their age group and enjoy doing so.

Although I have written many novels and short stories in English and Tamil, the pleasure I receive in writing for children is something that is close to my heart and cannot be explained.

As I enter the children’s world and envisage events from their viewpoints, I tend to learn a lot.

As I mingle with them, I have absorbed certain matters and written many short stories based on them.
