Event Description: Neha and the Nose, Writing and Theatre Workshop For Children with Author Ruchika Chanana
"The Nose flared slightly. It sniffed, snorted elegantly, and then scrunched into itself.
No case is too difficult for Neha and Johan.
So what if they're just 13.75 years old? They have a secret weapon—the Nose—which belongs to Johan, and which can smell anything from day-old underwear to a whiff of vetiver in a bus full of sweating kids."
Indian children are fed on a diet of stories from abroad. Especially in the detective genre, there are hardly any home-grown sleuths that are popular, except perhaps Satyajit Ray’s Feluda. Aimed at 10-12 year olds, Neha and the Nose is a hilarious detective novel that stars India’s very own version of Nancy Drew and her partner who has a superpower. The book is set in an environment that today’s tweens will immediately identify with, and its characters are real and very entertaining.
Join Ruchika Chanana, the author of 'Neha and the Nose', on a sleuthing adventure using theatre and writing as tools to play detectives!
