The true mark of an artist is when he creates the characters and the characters assume the identity of their own slipping through the hands of the author, the creator. This becomes more of a challenge when the characters are children or the opposite gender. But the authors, Pankaj Kumar Saxena and Preeta Chandran have done this feat in their entertaining book, “The Chemical Drones” where they create the characters of young school going children who are not wooden and predictable rather dynamic and round characters.
They have all characteristics of children of being naughty, playful and enjoying their school life. That leads to the events that are described in the book. The book may be a short read but the pictures and the text font used by the authors are enough to make “The Chemical Drones” a fun book for children. Since school and its events form the background, it becomes easily relatable for the children. Adults can also read the book and relive their days when they used to go to school and perhpas be as naughty as the kids depicted in the book.
