Review | Tap Tap Tapak (Hindi)

Author: Amar Goswami
Illustrator: Partho Sengupta
Publisher: Pratham
Language: Hindi

This review has been long overdue. But I felt it is appropriate time to talk about this book - it is the rainy season now, and kids love the rains!

Paper boats are out floating in the water and crazy dancing in the rains ensues. But what exactly does it mean for the animals in this jungle?

The title of this Hindi book from Pratham publications itself suggests it is a sound and the various interpretations by the residents of the jungle. So what does this sound stand for? This is exactly what the jungle animals do. They set out to find out the source of the sound they hear on a rainy day.

The author and illustrator have both done a great job in maintaining suspense, enough to hold a child's interest in finding out more about the sound mentioned.

This Level 2 book by Pratham is a picture-rich story book appropriate for kids aged 3+.

After my son was born, things became different and the first three months were extremely painful feeding him or holding him thanks to my C-section stitches. So all maternal feelings vanished into thin air and all I could think was sleep or having “me-time”. There was hardly a chance to cuddle up with him! Post partum depression had hit me big time and me not being able to calm down a screaming infant had dipped my morale too. Motherhood was nothing like I had imagined it would be! Besides I was terrified that my son would not accept me if I didn’t develop a bond early on. Of course, that did not happen. It was a mom’s fear that had spoken. After he entered the infamous toddler phase, I became the quintessential “villain” for my son – the usual don’t do this and that. Yet again, my dreams of becoming...

Choose the right monitor for your PC...

How many of you have read computer monitor reviews before buying one? Do you compare prices of computer monitors on websites? A large percentage of people have been found to do extensive surveys before making a purchase of the device. But what about those who haven’t done? Reviews of any gadget or device give a detailed insight on its resolution, dimensions, image quality, price, colors, camera (if it’s a mobile phone or a tablet) and finally the market ratings. Similarly, a computer monitor is a vital component of a PC or personal computer. Without the monitor, the computer is incomplete. So once you read computer monitors reviews, you are less likely to make a wrong choice while choosing between a Samsung or Dell monitor. First, check what type of monitor you want. This is because each brand specializes in providing different types of monitors. For instance, there are seven types of Samsung computer monitors available. Samsung offers a wide range of computer monitors like LCD, L...
