Book Review: Bhima's Ladle by Supriya Bansal

As I saw the book, the first word that came into my mind is a COMIC BOOK!

After many years, I lived the feeling of reading a comic book. Initially, I thought it to be some ancient mythological story, but it turned out other way round. It was an interesting story to read.

Thirteen-year-old Aru turned into a masterchef - that transition was smooth. I liked how he wanted to help his father but couldn't, because he had his wrestling match.

However, the twist came when that mysterious man gave him that wooden ladle, saying it was mighty Bhima's ladle. That hooked me, who was he?

I loved how Aru tried to cook food, assuming that Bhima's ladle was magical and it helped him finish the order on time. Well, his father said it right "Aru had watched him cook" and this is the reason he was able to cook such a big meal and deliver on time.

I was stunned when Hari also showed them the wooden ladle that his nephew gave him. However, I thought that the old man who gave the ladle to Aru was lord Bhima, himself. Maybe, he knew that Aru needed it, and he came for help. --- that's my thought!

A well-crafted story, that too, in comic format, made it easy to read. I enjoyed reading it!

Kudos to the author for this book!
