A book of six short stories by Siri Soraba, a Class II student at Kumaran’s, will be launched on November 13, the eve of Children’s Day, in Bengaluru.

Titled Whiskers and Tails, the book captures the lively and enchanting world of animals and a dash of magic. “Crafted in innocence and edged with loads of curiosity, the stories portray the positive spirit that the young author champions. The seven-year-old writer has also illustrated her stories,” said a release from the publishers.

The event will also have a session on the late Venugopala Soraba, English professor and writer in Kannada and English, who would have turned 90 this month. He is the grandfather of Siri.

The book will be launched at Wadia Hall, Indian Institute of World Culture, BP Wadia Road, Basavanagudi, between 10.30 a.m. and 1 p.m.
