What Makes Me, Me by Poorva Agarwal, Illustrations by Maithili Joshi
Published by Tulika Books in Spring 2020.
Your family, the shape of your nose, what you love to eat, the words you use, what makes you happy or sad, the keepsakes you collect... Lots of little things come together to make you YOU, and me ME. This little picture book distills big ideas of evolution, biology, psychology and more for young minds. It conveys how each unique ME adds up to a diverse WE, and how it’s “being part of WE that makes me ME”! Playful pictures say as much as the words as they traverse landscapes, inside and out.
