Shru-berry Tales

2 Years 8 Months



Me: Look here, Chinnu! If you don't do this...

Shru: (In a bored voice) I know, I know. No TV, no playdough, no surprise color,

nothing!

Me: (Baffled because she stole my line) Yeah, you know it already.

Shru: I can't wait to be a grown up, Amma!

The fascinating workings of a child's mind and a fond mother's gift for words come

together in a most appealing manner in Shru-berry Tales. In these entertaining

snippets, Cauvery has not just recorded her little daughter's innocent quips,

observations, worldly wisdom, unexpected and amusing reactions, concern

for others and the very occasional urge to do mischief, but has conveyed them

so endearingly that it is a treat to eavesdrop on these conversations. Enjoyed

reading this book!

Parenting is one responsibility that cannot be delegated. Responsible parenting

is all about spending time with a toddler, answering many questions without

tempering endless curiosity, sprinkling love selflessly without expecting anything

in return. Many realise it, but not all of them practice it. Those who do, will find

themselves in Cauvery's conversations with Shruti. And those who don't, will

learn and derive inspiration for sure.
