My narrative poem 'Dilly Daisy' was illustrated by my ten year old  granddaughter Apsara during a workshop in Bangalore.  

  My story was serialized in the "Young World" supplement of  "The Hindu," newspaper, (published from Chennai,           
​  India)

        'Just For Elephants,'  an article that I wrote several years ago,
         for the magazine 'Highlights For Children,' (USA) is now 
          an audio book that is available online on the Google Play
         store and https://www.kobo.com. This story is about the
         Punnathur Kota  which is probably the only place in the
         world where you can see more than fifty elephants of all
         sizes  at close quarters. The  historical kota or palace, once
         belonged to the Raja of Punnathur, who was my
​                                                                       husband's grandfather. 


When I Meet A Dragon 

This story in verse is a collaborative effort between Santhini and her seven year old grand daughter Apsara Jayadev.
