Books with author Subhash Vyam

“Did we take more than our due?” Weaving his tale around a Gond fable about water, artist Subash Vyam muses on the history of our relationship to this most primeval of elements. A migrant to the city, he recalls growing up in a village where water was always scarce and human ingenuity was welcomed. In contrast to the village, the needs of the city are monstrous and there is a great danger that we will run this resource completely dry. In the end, there is only one way forward: all communities need to make a pact with Nature in order to survive ― or in our mindless push to harness her powers, we might lose our own place in this universe.

This children's book bundles an alphabet book (with a writing work area on each letter page), a traditional nursery rhymes book (with 50 rhymes and some very old illustrations), a joke book and a puzzles book. The alphabet book uses the same words that have been traditionally used to teach young kids. Young preschoolers can practice reading and writing the English alphabet with this book. The bonus nursery rhymes book also uses traditional lyrics. Nothing has been modified. The jokes and puzzles are of course new and are sourced from my book 2020 Fresh Clean Jokes For Kids.
