We’re so excited to be launching "The Boy Who Wanted to Know More" this Saturday in collaboration with Little Theatre Hyderabad () 🌻

Little Theatre Hyderabad has been nurturing young talent for over 30 years, creating space for children and adults to discover the joy of storytelling, drama, and performance. At the launch, they’ll be reading a few selected stories from the book and we can’t wait for you to experience it. ✨

Written by Emani Rani Sarma, The Boy Who Wanted to Know More takes us into the world of Thammudu, a curious little boy growing up in pre-Independence Srikakulam. This is a boy whose questions come from the heart, and stay with him as he makes sense of the world. Through stories full of wonder, warmth, and quiet wisdom, the book brings back a childhood filled with both small adventures and big feelings.
