Sometimes a circle, sometimes a slice and soon not there at all . . . This picture book in simple verse urges a child to look out of the window each night to watch the 'moon show' in the sky — its waxing and waning. Echoing the text, the illustrations are deliberately childlike and capture the grand sweep of the night sky.
Sandhya Rao is one of the finest writers for children in India. Her books have won awards and accolades: My Friend the Sea won the Ambitious Children’s Book Project award at the Berlin Children and Youth Literature Festival, 2005. My Mother’s Sari was chosen as an Outstanding International Book, 2007, by the United States Board for Books for Young People (USBBY) and the Children’s Book Council. Rights to the book have been sold for USA, Canada, Australia and the U.K. In 1996, she joined Radhika Menon to create multilingual books for children at a time when independent children’s publishing in India was nascent. She has written over 20 books. Chennai-based Sandhya has an eclectic taste in books, music and films and loves listening to stories, especially real stories. She works at The Hindu.
Trotsky Marudu works extensively with animation, advertising and feature films. He has illustrated the hugely popular Line and Circle and Look, the Moon, both published by Tulika.
