Count Your Blessings - By Alia Rathi

Bu sayıda

iNTELLYJELLY proudly presents ‘Count Your Blessings’, which is an endeavour by an 11-year-old budding author, Alia Rathi, and is a reflection of how she perceives the world around her. Her characters and settings are mostly a creation based on her personal experiences. Ranging from magic to suspense, fables to poetry, this book has it all. A reader will find complex characters like Christina, and in places, the author herself, as a character in her book! The uniqueness of the book lies in how the author herself has not just written the content but also contributed to the illustrations and photography in certain places. What happens when one’s toys come to life, an adventure at sea in a yacht, Theo the bear and Blaze the dragon’s strange friendship, Michael’s mission, the world of a magical painting, a strange encounter with aliens – find all this and more inhabiting the pages of this exquisite book, which has been developed based on the learnings of the ‘Author & Publish’ workshops conducted by iNTELLYJELLY. The true essence of the book can be found in the amalgamation of varied thoughts and ideas, imagery and elements of the fantastic which have beautifully been woven around to make the book one of its kind. Designed and published by iNTELLYJELLY, the pages of the book also unveil messages by the author’s mentors and parents thereby adding a personal touch and creating a bridge between the author and her readers.
