Once a man came strolling by,

But he stopped, and asked why,

The trees and birds had all turned blue

Just like his small hat and shoe,

He looked up to the sky and said,

Why is the sky green instead?

Get drawn into the imaginative world of an 11-year old.

Little Glow is an inspiring collection of eclectic poems written by Urvashi Balasubramaniam, who gives the readers a peep into her world. Sometimes funny and sometimes sensitive and serious, she writes on a variety of subjects. Written over several years, the poems range from the funny to the poignant.

From candies and chocolates, in her early years, she has moved on to write poems on the state of the environment and gender issues. Whether it is an 8-line poem on popcorn or two-page on princesses, you will be enthralled by her sensitivity and delight at her control on language.

Margie Sastry, ex-editor and writer at Amar Chitra Katha writes, It is apparent as you go through the collection that they have been written over the years, tracing the innocent joys of childhood through simple ditties to poetry that communicates her concern for the world she is growing up in.

Put up your feet and enjoy reading about the world of an 11-year old girl.
