Asha Shankardass is a practising company secretary by profession and a children's writer by inclination. Her family hailed from Rawalpindi and left their roots behind during the Partition, to make a new beginning in India. Today, she is the grandmother of two sets of twins and says her books originated from the inevitable grandmother's role of being a storyteller, to keep her grandchildren amused. Her books bind the different generations together, grandparents, parents and children, in a wonderful web of love and learning while sharing the little and large lessons of life with each other.
