Vallabhi Shengaonkar’s story ‘Dragon’s Train Ride’ is a total awwwww-inducing story. We also love the looks on the faces of the commuters when they find this unusual companion accompanying them on the journey.
It was fun to work on this 6-Frame-Story Challenge of Pratham Books.
Vallabhi Shegaonkar’s Illustrations for the #6FrameStoryChallenge by Pratham Books
(Vallabhi Shegaonkar is a self-taught freelance children’s book illustrator. Drawing and painting has always been her passion. She worked as a software engineer for several years before deciding to venture out as a freelance
illustrator for children’s books in 2014. “I like working with a variety of media – watercolor, color
pencils, acrylics and oil. Apart from digital, I’m also confident in working with pen and ink based work”, says Vallabhi. You can follow her work on Facebook.)
