Anushka Ravishankar

Anushka Ravishankar has written over forty books for children, including picture books in verse, chapter books, retellings of folk tales and non-fiction. Several of them have been published internationally and have won awards. Not all of them make sense. She worked as an editor at Tara Books and Scholastic India before co-founding Duckbill Books (now a Penguin Random House India imprint). Some of her books are Moin and the Monster, Hic!, Ogd and a series Science for Smartypants, which is serious science as explained to a very silly cat. Her latest book is an Indian adaptation of The Little Prince, co-created with illustrator Priya Kuriyan.
