Kitabon mein Billi ne Bachche Diye Hain

इब्न बतूता पहन के जूता, निकल पड़े तूफान में 

थोड़ी हवा नाक में घुस गई, घुस गई थोड़ी कान में

Only a great poet such as, Sarveshwar Dayal Saxena can write a poem for children about going into a storm. Not a regular storm, but a storm that can break you into two. Stopping only to repair his shoes, Ibn Batuta enters storm after storm.

The poem rekindles the memory of Ibn Batuta's courageous travels from Morocco to India as it enthuses life into rhymes for children. All poems in this collection are equally remarkable. For instance, read the following poem, crisp composition with a breezy rhyme:

महँगू ने महँगाई में, पैसे फूँके टाई में

While poems temperament rises and falls, Debabrata Ghosh's illustrations are quiet and serene. The green in these illustrations is in its quietest form, so is the colour blue.
