Bulbul Sharma

Manu's father and grandfather are potters, and Manu is learning the craft. This lively story depicts both the simple joys and the hardships of a potter's life, from gathering clay and making pots to selling them in the city markets. Bulbul Sharma's enchanting story is illustrated by Shanti Devi in the Madhubani style. Each book in this series of four, created by the Dastkari Haat Samiti, looks at the life of a child in a rural artisan family from different parts of India. Local forms of painting and craftwork have been used to illustrate the stories so that children can enjoy and appreciate varied cultural expressions.
