Really enjoyed the article. I agree that children are often underestimated as to their understanding of what are difficult subjects, and we do them no favors when we do not allow them to work through them. We all have to stretch and work our mental muscles if we are to grow strong.

I loved this interview! My family and I love Rickshaw Girl, and I was excited to tell them about Mitali’s new book.
