Today we welcome Suhasini Gupta of the Picture Book Peeps to the Curious Compassionate Podcast. Suhasini talks about the launch of her debut picture book, Kai Po Che: Mini’s Perfect Kite, how kites are like dreams, and how she got kids to fly kites inside. Suhasini describes how she went from engineering to writing, including reaching for emotions that were previously unaccessible. She talks about her ambitious two-year plan that got her to her first book deal, and how living in the US turned her into more of a reader and writer.
Suhasini’s debut picture book is Kai Po Che: Mini’s Perfect Kite, published by Gnome Road Publishing.
