Balranjan Kendra, Pune organised an event on 8th May, 2015 where Sandhya Taksale from Pratham Books presented our work and our mission of getting ‘a book in every child’s hand.
Sandhya couldn’t resist telling a story to the kids who had accompanied the parents and an impromptu storytelling session based on ‘Anaya’s Thumb’ ensued. Sandhya also interacted with parents and shared her views on the importance of reading stories and the development of language. The parents also learnt about the different ways in which we are working towards our mission and seemed very interested in our upcoming story publishing platform and the various ways in which it can be used.
A few pictures from the event :
And to our delight, we also received pictures of this adorable young reader. This 11 month kiddo received a gift of books from her grandmum who attended the event. We wish this little one a happy reading journey 🙂
