What happens when a grouchy giant decides to scoop all colour out of the world? What happens when a grouchy giant decides to scoop all colour out of the world from the trees and flowers, from the birds and animals, the fish and the waters? A quaint, fairytale-like story, set amidst magnificent mountains, leafy forests, swirling seas and skies, in which the significance of colour is pointed out by one little girl who can’t see it. Sandhya Prabhat’s pictures play with the ebb and flow of colour, startling the reader with brilliantly coloured pages and stark, monochromatic ones. A multi-hued journey in which a little girl who can’t see helps the grouchy giant see the world around in a completely new way.
Stephen Aitken is a writer-illustrator who is passionate about the natural world. His studio in the colourful Himalayas provides shelter for ants, pigeons, spiders, and an odd mouse.
Sandhya Prabhat is an independent illustrator/ animator from Chennai. She holds an MFA degree from NYU Tisch School of the Arts Asia in Animation and Digital Arts, and did her Bachelor of Arts in Literature from Stella Maris College.
