About the Book:
Rooney’s Magical Braid is a story about a girl named Rooney. She had beautiful hair but she never liked to comb them. The book begins with a conversation between tangled hair and comb. The hair, comb, ribbons are all personified.
The book also carry illustrations drawn by the author herself. The illustrations carry steps to make those intricate patterns and hence is like a workbook of drawing. It is inspired by childhood experiences and can be easily relatable.
This book helps readers to learn drawing in a fun way along with the entertainment of a story. The patterns are those used for art therapy and helps reduce stress. A mindful art form blended with kids stories, moulds young minds in a creative way.
Currently the book is launched as a short e-book read on Kindle Unlimited. The paperback version is not available yet. It’s a book for all ages, but specially for young children.
