New Age Classics Children Adventure Trilogy- A Look At Concept & Storytelling
Have you watched Narnia? You would have
Chances are you haven't read the book series. I have.
Have you watched Dunston checks in?
You would have (Ek bandar hotel ke andar)
Have you read the Famous Five? Daddy Long Legs?
Now, think of all these childhood memories.
Now, now
💫You flip through the pages of Rishi's dabble into children's Fiction, indelible and the triumphs of kids which is subtly nostalgic, some parts are too familiar and this familiarity breeds no contempt, abuses or anything remotely what I have been reading mostly. So, just to read these stories, it's a pleasure indeed. The author's penchant for storytelling is a discovery in itself. The 3 book series, independent in each of it's telling,
The Secret Of SnallyGaster
Framed In Hollywood
The Race To Phar Lap's Saddle
- reinvents a series for children and even adults who enjoy going back to innocent fun. Reaching in to move you are the evocative illustrations which is where the book stands out the most. Loved loved it. The books are illustrated, culturally resonant, how I like children's books to be. The fact that the author did his homework well and spilled some secrets there, being a friend to our mains Tara and Neil is what a kid needs. Cities of Adventure is a worthwhile change for anyone who wants to get out of a slump. Refreshing, unique even though inspired, Tara and Neil can make for a good substitute to classics of olden times which have hogged the limelight too long now.
💫I enjoyed all the 3 books I must say and I would recommend any one of the books to everyone who wants Mary to pop.
If you haven’t picked up a book by @piparaiya , an urban trend setter for children’s fiction (am sure that a kid anywhere in india will learn a lot about the world just from these little independent reads), you are in for a treat. His books are curious and filled with subtle lessons for a mind which enjoys adventures. (Posting more on my IG)
I wish more people wrote like Rishi. And a child more than I am, will tell you maybe better, why.
