A children’s book that celebrate extraordinary women
A few weeks ago, a cousin in the USA, got this book from Amazon India through me for her little girl kids. The book is titled “The Dot that went for a walk” containing 51 short stories written by Sarada Akkineni, Reema Gupta and Lakshmi Nambiar and published by Caterpillar Wing. On opening the book, I realised it was a special book – every story was about extraordinary women from India including artists, scientists, politicians, and many more. It even had activity charts!

At Rs.649, the book is not cheap, but it is a hardbound coffee table style book that is worth every penny spent. A must-read by every kid, get it, especially if you have young boys!
