“If your Paati’s rasam is a taste you still miss, this story will go straight to your heart. It is warm rather than heavy, and its kitchen looks just like home.”
A pot of rasam that tastes like weekends with Paati.
Paati's Rasam is a gentle picture book about a girl missing her grandmother.
Malli loves weekends with her Paati: head massages, hugs, long stories and, best of all, Paati's steaming rasam. Then one day everything changes. Malli's world loses its colour, with no hugs, no rasam and no Paati. Can she find a way to keep a piece of her grandmother close?
Why children love it
- Rasam made step by step, with tomatoes, tamarind, spices and a final flourish of ghee and mustard.
- A bird's-eye kitchen scene, full of steel vessels and jars, as the house fills with its smell.
- Malli tells the story herself, so children share each feeling in her own words.
By Janaki Sabesh and Dhwani Sabesh · Illustrated by Pallavi Jain · English
