Shukla, Vinod Kumar

Godaam / गोदाम - Jugnoo Prakshan - 12p.;col.ill. 8.5×8.5 inches

Master storyteller, Vinod Kumar Shukla’s very moving short story of a man who wants to live in a house with a tree. His present house has a karanj tree. Karanj’s leaves and flowers fly into his house as the wind blew away its fragrance. One day, the owner asked him to vacate the house. He looked and looked for another house with a tree. Now fewer and fewer houses can accommodate a tree. What will he do? Where will he live? Seasoned illustrator, Taposhi Ghoshal’s water-colored illustrations are a visual treat. With such few colors, she can bring the karanj tree to life with all its companions- the house and the pigeons. Through illustrations, she not only creates a calm and serene mood of the book, but she also adds a sense of maturity to its presentation.
