Book Reveiw - Bhima's Ladle

21st Oct 2024

I received this book through the @penmancybooknook book review program just before I decided to nap in my ME TIME. But I had to change my plan, because there was no way I was not going to get my hands on the book after the Sonny boy returned from school. So I thought of giving up on my nap and started reading. And how right was I, he has stolen it from me and hence I am using the same picture I clicked to post the story!

It is a quick read (36 pages), but the beautiful marriage that has happened between the impactful story telling and catchy graphics is outstanding. This book also promises to teach crucial life lessons. Aru, a teenager has a passion for wrestling and a strong desire to help his father in his catering business too. Aru does not like cooking but his intent to help his father in his business is uncompromised. How he manages to do both is what the story is about, won't give away spoilers! But one thing is sure, this little story carries a very important life lessons for young adults and teenagers.



While the language is easy breezy, the colourful, vibrant artwork makes it an apt read for kids. The placing of text and illustration is wisely done so that one does not dominate the impact of the other. The colourful print does make the book a bit expensive, but it is sure to become a forever keep. Looking forward to more from Supriya's pen!
