Weirdly Indian: Toilets, Toys & Total Mystery!

The Indus Valley Civilization (c. 2500 BCE – 1900 BCE)

This book explores the Indus Valley Civilization through the details that rarely make it into textbooks—toilets, toys, city planning, games, seals, and everyday problem-solving.

Instead of focusing on kings or battles, Weirdly Indian: Toilets, Toys & Total Mystery! looks at how people actually lived: how they built their homes, managed water, entertained children, and designed cities that still surprise historians today.

Written for young readers, the book encourages curiosity, observation, and questioning—showing that history is not just something to memorise, but something to explore and wonder about.

Ages 8+ | Curious readers | Schools & families

UPCOMING BOOK (IN PROGRESS)

Weirdly Indian: The Age That Wrote the Rules… and Then Sang Them

The Vedic Age

This upcoming book explores the Vedic Age through stories, ideas, and everyday life, an age when people didn’t just follow rules, but spoke them, remembered them, and sang them.

The book looks at how knowledge was passed on before writing became common, how hymns and ideas shaped daily life, and how learning, memory, and music played a central role in society.

Rather than presenting the Vedic Age as a fixed set of facts, this book invites young readers to understand how ideas evolved, how traditions were formed, and why this period continues to influence Indian culture even today.

Focus:

Ideas, learning, oral traditions, everyday life, and curiosity
