Who can forget the impressive works of Mario Miranda, I particularly was attracted to the googly eyes, and the large belly or bosoms of his characters, so typically Indian too. This one should be quite enticing if it features his works along with his life history.

entertaining and inspiring read. Would love to check it out.
Wow this sounds to be an interesting read for me given that I love reading kids books. Will check this out sooner
I love that humor was added to his children’s books. This is the best way for children to have a positive impression of reading, in my opinion. Making reading a fun activity you can do instead of boring sentences after sentences that you need to comprehend wouldn’t work for children.
Loved your review. I am gonna check out the book for my little daughter who is a toddler. Kids loves books with big pictures and relevant message. Thanks for the suggestion.
The over all intro and review looks so pictorial and its from the artist so definitely creative. I myself love cartoons and stories. Will suggest this one for my 5 year old nephew.
