Sneak Peek

About the Author & Illustrator: Subhash & Sujata Kommuru

Subhash and Sujata Kommuru hail from India. They migrated to the United States along with their memories of childhood and youth. Now that they are parents, just like every immigrant they crave to introduce their child to the culture and values of their upbringing. Yet it is challenging to teach something while you are in the midst of adjusting to a different culture yourself.
Subhash and Sujata both work in different disciplines and have different styles and backgrounds, but it is the upbringing of their son that brings them on the same page. That exact place where they meet is captured and reflected in their stories, where Subhash can express in words, and Sujata can illustrate them beautifully. Where he puts it in black and white, she adds color to it. You get the idea!
These stories are their attempt to share a glimpse of their childhood days with their son. He is their inspiration to write short stories that have meaning to them and provide teaching in some shape or form.

 ***My Personal Review***

 I truly loved this story :) It is so inspiring and beautifully written. Even though chickens and birds are universal, the names and settings are of Indian origin and that really makes the story cross borders. It is a great story for children of all ages, and though it is geared towards children I actually found that at 38 I can still learn things from books :) This is really a GREAT story for teachers to use for anti-bullying purposes as well as any parent to teach their child about bullies. But most of all it teaches us that a mothers love really CAN conquer any fear ... and that a mother will go to any length to protect her child :) Really loved it, if I could give it 10 stars I would! The illustrations were amazingly done, they were made to look like crayon drawings by children, and they were vibrant and really told the story through the illustrations.
