Is is available at the library?<br /><br />The illustration technique reminds me of something we saw in a how-to book about art- Mix glue in colour and paint the entire page. Then working very quickly with an empty ballpoint refill, scratch out the entire drawing and then let it set.sandhyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09654489216158421654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389926.post-19733242024551485172010-10-30T19:15:24.367-07:002010-10-30T19:15:24.367-07:00Oh yeah I agree this book is currently my favourit...Oh yeah I agree this book is currently my favourite at home ! The book is so beautiful, simple and honest. As Sathish mentioned, it has their festival tradition, day to day lifetsyle patterns, various occupations of the village people...everything woven into it.<br /><br />I was so amazed by the illustrations. They are indeed beautiful and unique. Every day this book has to be read to my 4 yr old daughter atleast once !ranjani.sathishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10450770799790366871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389926.post-3772292058919829982010-10-30T18:57:16.902-07:002010-10-30T18:57:16.902-07:00Tharini, Everything in the book was different - th...Tharini, Everything in the book was different - the content is not something that one hears about and the illustrations and their technique is also very different. <br /><br />It is a big fav in home. Ranjani and the kids enjoy it as much - does not happen that often that all of us like the same book!sathishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07061644730228380194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389926.post-34284375704883737052010-10-30T16:02:05.769-07:002010-10-30T16:02:05.769-07:00Wow.

I can see your intense involvement with this book, as you've tried to convey everything that makes it stand out.<br /><br />Amazed at the technique that he uses, which I am hearing about for the first time.
