Ammu and the Quest to Grow-Up
written and illustrated by Malvika Nair
Ammu is a young girl with a big dream of being a grown-up. Being a “grown-up” is relatively simple. She could do it in her sleep. But as she tries to emulate her parents and sister, she finds herself making mistakes and feeling discouraged. It turns out that being an adult is more complicated than she thought!
Will Ammu give up on her dream? Or will her family's support and encouragement help her realize that becoming a grown-up is a journey, not an overnight transformation?
Find out in this heartwarming tale about self-discovery, learning, and taking things one day at a time.
