Geeta Ramanujam

Geeta Ramanujam is an academician and a storyteller in Bangalore. She has been a teacher and librarian at the Krishnamurti Foundation School, Bangalore and the Sri Aurobindo Memorial School for twenty years. She has also worked as a freelance journalist for ten years. In 1998, she founded an organization called Kathalaya: The House of Stories, to revive the ancient art of storytelling and to use it in schools as a cultural tool in education. She has travelled abroad with her workshops on storytelling. Since then, she has established storytelling as part of the curriculum in over ten schools in Bangalore and Madurai and has won many awards for her contributions towards child welfare and education. A part of the proceeds of this book will go towards making learning an enjoyable experience for children through storytelling, a motto Kathalaya abides by.
