My 8 year old daughter, Krithya, has written her first book and we are having a small launch function at our apartment’s community hall. We would like to cordially invite you to the book launch function.
Please treat this as our personal invitation and it would be our delight to have your presence and blessings. I feel its a defining moment in the young girl’s life and your presence would be great encouragement.
Day and Date: Sunday, 14th March
Time: 10:30 AM
Here’s the address:
Community Hall, Raj Paris Apartments, 82, Kamaraj Street, Virugambakkam, Chennai – 600092
Landmark : Near Avichi School.
Directions: The venue is about 1.5 kms from Vadapalani Bus Stand. On Arcot Road, after Avichi School and a big Raymond’s Showroom, take the first right. This is Kamaraj Street. After 100 meters, the road splits into right and left. (a ‘T’ junction). The Raj Paris apartment is exactly at this ‘T’ junction. It’s opposite to an Amman Temple. Once inside the apartment, ask for the Community Hall. Its at the back of the apartment. If you need help, please call me at 98415 97744.
My friend and Singer Chinmayi, who Krithya has a lot of admiration for, has agreed to launch the book.
I Seek Your Help: I understand that most of you are not in Chennai and here’s my request to you. It would be a great source of encouragement if you can call and speak to my little girl and give her your wishes. She doesn’t expect anyone to call and it would be a good surprise for her.
Here are the numbers you can call.
My Home Landline Number: +91.44.42733619
My mobile number: +91.98415 97744
Alternatively, you can leave your words of encouragement in the comments section of this blog post and I will show this to her. You may also email to Kiruba@Kiruba.com and I will show your message to Krithya.
We received the books from the printer yesterday and here is Krithya, obviously jubilant, with the first copy.
Here is how the story book looks like.

We look forward to your presence and your words of encouragement. Thanks in advance.

Dear Krithya,
Congratulations on your book launch.
You have inspired my daughter (Akshara-6 yrs old) to do something with her drawings and she wants to write a book as well. That is power of your activity at this age.
May God bless with you all the good things in life and keep up this good work.
Yours
Rajesh Rajasekaran
Congrats Krithya!! You have made your Daddy Proud!!.
Authoring a book 8yrs. Unbelievable. Kudos to her.
Every Kid has talent and it has to be channelised properly to get the best out of them. Help them realise their potential. Kudos to your daughter and to you and your spouse for this collective effort of nurturing her talent. Wish her all the best for many more such creative ventures. I have a daughter too (3yr Old) who dreams of being a dancer. Hope that one day i will invite you all for her solo performance someday.

Dear Krithya,
I just happened to read your father’s blog where i saw your photos with the book in hand. It was a very inspiring moment, and I cannot but help feeling proud about your achievements!I can only imagine how proud and happy your parents must be feeling.
Congratulations for this tremendous achievement, for the talent, persistence and confidence the project must have required from you. I hope you will write many more such books. Love to you and your sister.

Its amazing. Congrats to Krithya. Kudos to her parents
Kudos Krithya !!! I’m very happy for your constructive thought that you planted at an early age. Keep it going, take feedback from people like your father for things that you do in future, this is what they call inspiration.
You may have to thank M.R Aravindan K, from Bangalore. Without him saying or showing this Art of yours I wouldnt have been aware.
Cheers,
