Chitwan Mittal holds an MA in Values in Education from the University of London. Actively involved in childrens education since 2005, she was part of the committee that established the Indian Institute of Teacher Education and the Childrens University by the Government of Gujarat, India. She is now foraying into the field of writing childrens picture books. Her books encourage engagement and diversity and focus on value-oriented education, bi-lingual learning and South Asian culture. She lives between India and Singapore with her husband and two sons. Sarita Saraf is a writer and an artist, with an intense passion for reading. Art has been central in her life which led her to work as a Graphic designer in an architectural firm for a few years. She has authored three monographs, Nachiketas, Socrates and Abraham Lincoln, and has recently translated Sri Aurobindos Hymns to the Mystic Fire in Hindi. Childrens books is another avenue which opened new doors. Having penned seven-eight childrens stories earlier (not yet in print), she has begun dabbling in verse and loves it!
