Ajay Shankar

An engineer by education, Ajay Shankar has been scribbling stories and poetry for over 2 decades. It wasn't until his kids were born that he felt the need to turn his writing into something more tangible. Most of his stories are in the form of simple poetry, based on the observation that kids love the rhythms and sound of rhyming words. 'The Elephant and the Peanut' is his first picture book for children and is the first of, hopefully, a few more stories.
