A tale that is hair-raising

Ming-Ming, Fat Little Bear is a delightful new children's book on Pratham Books' StoryWeaver. Written by award-winning author Jerry Pinto and illustrated by Vishnu M Nair (the two worked on the informative Postcards from Bombay), it's the story of a bear who wakes up with standing-up hair. And although the bear family pokes fun at it, he eventually comes to accept it. Even if the book is meant for kids, I think there's a lesson that we can all learn.
