In My Heart - Book Review

-



It's not usual that you get a book that gets so close to your heart in one read. I received this gem of a book "In My Heart"  from Penguin India and it's a treasure to keep.

'In my Heart' by Nandana Dev Sen is a book every parent should buy for their child. It is a story about this beautiful girl Mia who thought she came out of her parent's heart until she saw her friend's mother's big tummy. She learns that she has a tummy mummy too and sets out to find her.
This book takes us to the amazing journey of Mia discovering who she really is and where she comes from.

I love the way this book has taken the dynamics of families to the next level, families that are made of bond of  love and not just of blood. It is appreciable of Mia's parents of how she is told abouot her birth and parents in this tender age in words that are easily understandable by kids of that age. the support of the extended family is commendable.



The illustrations are by Ruchi Mhasane and are of warmth and tenderness.

I totally recommend this book for kids aged 5-7 years old, for its sensitivity and compassionate topic.
Priced at Rs. 299, you can buy it here

Letter to my Younger Self

Dear Young Nee, I write this letter to you on my bed after putting both the kids to sleep, piling up all the clothes to be washed in the laundry bag, clearing the floors of the toys, also the tiniest blocks which came under my feet thrice in the last hour, saying bye to the dishes to-be washed staring at me in the kitchen sink. No, I am not cribbing about it. Life has become lovely with my two boys and a doting husband. Please take what's useful from this letter and leave what's not. I know you are quite stubborn and won't heed to most of my advices. But I am still trying my luck. To make it easier and short for you, I am writing this letter in points. 💌 I know you are quite confused after high school, as to which path/career choice to make. But whatever you choose you shall thrive in it only if you be head-strong for it. Your heart is into Media, so do take it up. Going out of the norms and regular is what you are made up of. 💌 Unhear all the shit advices you g

We know that Valentine's day is celebrated as a couple's day. But this trend is changing and many swear by celebrating it with expressing our love for family, parents and friends. Ofcourse, none of us would be here without our parents. But many of us forget our brothers and sisters. They have shared so many of the defining moments of our lives. This is my V day letter to my beautiful sisters with whom I still fight like cats and dogs. Dear Sisters , From the very moment I saw you in Mum's hand. I fell in love with you. I was filled with happiness, for I have become an elder. I was happy that I can boss over someone for my tiny chores like getting me a glass of water, fetching my school bag. Now I will be the teacher when we play ' School School '.I will be your nurse when you get hurt while playing. I will be your coach when you want to learn cycle. I will be your mother when you are messy while eating. I will be your police woman and protect you

Mamaerth micellar water - Review

  Mamaearth's micellar water foaming makeup remover is something I was waiting to try and was very excited about it. This makeup remover contains rose water and glycolic acid which gently removes makeup buildup and exfoliates the skin too. . 🌟 This remover helps me skip the cottonbuds i used earlier, a step towards the environment. 🌟 The brush is gentle and delicate on the skin 🌟 Removed daily makeup effectively and easily 🌟 Suitable for all skins 🌟 Paraben and SLS free 🌟 Dermatologically tested What concerned me - ⚡ Does not work effectively on heavy makeup, had to use coconut oil to melt it further. ⚡The smell of rose disturbed my nerves as I am allergic to it. ⚡ The brush came out often when used rigorously. ⚡ Leaves the colour of my lipstick on the brush, though there are directions to wash the brush, i was not quite satisfied Finally take: It is a good buy for daily makeup but definitely not heavy makeup and long lasting ones. Available on their website , Amazon and Nyk
