How to Be You by Ruskin Bond seems like a book for kids, but it feels more like a collection of gentle reminders for adults. Most of the ideas shared in this book are things we already know, yet we often need to hear them again.

It begins with his journey as a writer, describing how he got started, published his first book, and firmly believed in taking payment for his work.
What follows are beautiful reflections on life, touching on topics like staying true to yourself while living in a world full of differences.
The artwork in this book also deserves a special mention, it is truly pleasing to the eye. Kudos to Shamika Chaves
Though it is ideal for readers aged 8 to 16, I believe adults will find great value in reading it too. 📚
Thanks to HarperCollins for the copy.
