Munna and the Maharaja

Description

A hot summer day, an old man in dusty clothes who calls himself a maharaja, a little boy Munna whobelieves him, and a teashop full of people who don’t… With the familiar feel of a folktale, this delightful storykeeps the reader guessing till the end! Going with the flavour, Deepa Balsavar chooses a style she calls ‘partfolksy, part whimsy’, giving a contemporary setting to a traditional tale. Acrylic illustrations carry the whiff of ahot-dry landscape with pops of colour, gathering the hustle-bustle of Munna’s day with a man who is or isnot a maharaja!
