Thanks to publishers like Tulika and reviewers like you, who respect them, they will be preserved for our kids to enjoy. Especially love the backstage story of the performer, for few of us will ever get to see that view.Anushahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03887052887207435095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389926.post-46805736104377846502010-10-25T10:48:35.615-07:002010-10-25T10:48:35.615-07:00For a art challenged person like me, I'm sure ...For a art challenged person like me, I'm sure learning a lot from all your reviews!

Found this book afterwards and totally loved it. Wonder if Aiyappan was there in the performance I saw!<br /><br />There was also a Kattaikattu show in AHA! at Rangashankara last year. My children and their friends thoroughly enjoyed it. Hope there are more of them this year too.Choxboxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03741540918529448553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389926.post-89455695982625171362010-10-24T09:47:46.839-07:002010-10-24T09:47:46.839-07:00che missed the show
