Censorship in Children's Literature with Devika Rangachari And Sowmya Rajendran

Any and all creative pursuits are subject to censorship and judgement. Should they be?

In the last episode of Season 1 of The Little Book Makers, Devika Rangachari and Sowmya Rajendran discuss censorship, gate-keeping, and covering taboo topics in children's literature.

Both of them are acclaimed authors who have written bold books for children. Devika is the author of one of our books - A Hundred Cartloads - and has also authored a series of historical fiction books including Queen of Ice, Queen of Earth, and Queen of Fire among others. Sowmya has authored the wildly popular Mayil books, along with Niveditha Subramaniam, and has received the Sahitya Akademi's Bal Sahitya Puraskar. She has also written School is Cool and The Boy Who Asked Why among many other books.
