A Level 1 book in Hindi by Pratham Publications, Mera Parivaar or my family is about the various members of a family in India.
As a level 1 book, it is a perfect book
for children to begin reading books with the help of elders – more importantly to
improve listening and comprehension skills.
Mera Parivaar is about a small girl called Tuktuk who introduces her not-so-small, yet big family. Her family comprises of her mother, father, brother, sister, maternal and paternal grandparents, aunts and uncles, younger cousins and a small pet dog Bujo.
Authors Arshi Naaz, Kuldeep Sandhu and Susheela have kept up the narration alive through the main character Tuktuk. Illustrator Rajeev Verma has sketched all the members of a typical joint family in India quite well.
All of us have at some point grown up in a joint family at
some point of time. Annual family reunions used to be a ritual every summer
vacation for most growing up in the 80s and 90s, and even until recent. This
book is great for tiny tots to understand each relationship quite well.
Apt for kids aged 3+.
