The words that we have researched and selected for this book are in line with the recommendations and guidelines of early childhood agencies in Australia.
The gorgeous illustrations are done by Navya Raju .illustration - thank you, Navya, once again for your wonderful work. This book came together at a really stressful time for me and I really appreciate that you hung in there together with me 🤗
And a heartfelt thank you to Mdm. Kamala from Kumaresh Publications for proofreading the copy for this book. You guys have always been such a wonderful support ❤❤❤

Vaaranam Books®] 💕Cover Reveal💕
We are so excited to share with you the cover of our new book - இரண்டுமே பிடிக்கும் (Irandume Pidikkum).
This is a beautiful, comforting story for new elder siblings about a parent's ever-growing love.
Irandume Pidikkum is written by Abhi Krish from - Abhi is an incredibly talented writer and we have always admired her work.
When Abhi sent me the manuscript last year, I could relate to this story so much. Because as a parent, I faced similar challenges with my son when my daughter came along. His behaviour changed for the worst and he regressed in a few developmental areas. It was very frustrating for me and my husband but his behaviours were simply a child's way of dealing with emotions that come to surface with the arrival of a new sibling 💕
And once again, there are multiple books in English to help children cope with this experience but none in Tamil. So, I knew that I had to publish this book - a story that many children and parents would be able to relate to!
The beautiful illustrations are done by Anushka Shenoy who really understood the brief and brought the characters and emotions to life.
Thank you Abhi and Anushka for your wonderful work and it's lovely to see this book take shape over the past year and reach its final form ❤
Special thanks to Thaxsha Mark for editing the book and picking up things that we didn't 🙈 We really appreciate it!
Irandume Pidikkum will be available on our website by end of November. We look forward to seeing pictures of you reading this with your little ones 🥰
