Children’s Literature & Educational Books
Sir Ratan Tata Trust and Navajbai Ratan
Tata Trust are amongst the oldest philanthropic foundations in the country. The
Trusts support institutions and initiatives
engaged in developmental and creative
endeavours. Through its grant making, the
Trusts promote development action and
knowledge building in various fields. In
Education, Trusts are focusing on facilitating systemic reform and strengthening
elementary education as a field of study. The
Trusts recognize that there is scarcity of age
appropriate reading material for children in
various Indian languages. Identifying this
need, the Trusts launched the publication
initiative, Parag.
parag
Parag aims at:
•
•
•
•
•
Development and publication children’s
literature and educational material in
various Indian languages.
Creating channels for dissemination.
Facilitate development of platform for
sharing among key stakeholders.
Developing children’s literature as a
field through creating resource material,
promoting research and deliberations.
Promoting reading amongst children
and educators.
Some of the key partners of the Trusts
under Parag, whose titles published from
2005 till date. Partnerships that are yet to
result into publication of new titles are not
captured in the current catalogue.
Eklavya, Bhopal is a well-known educational organization that develops, field tests
educational innovations, provides resource
support, develops curricular material and
publishes children’s literature and educational material in Hindi, English and Urdu.
Eklavya has published over 100 titles with

Centre for Learning Resources (CLR), Pune
is a technical support organisation, providing training and materials for improving
quality of elementary and early childhood
education. The Trusts have supported CLR for
publishing 20 recreational and supplementary reading materials in Marathi-English and
Hindi-English format, as well as reference

learning in the regional language.

Anveshi - Research Centre for Women’s
Studies, Hyderabad is a support group and
a think tank on women’s issues focusing
on various themes including education.
The Trusts supported Anveshi for a project
called ‘Different Tales’ that captured diverse
lived experiences of children from rural and
marginalized communities by publishing a
selection of folk tales, songs, fictional and
autobiographical narratives in Telugu, Malayalam and English.

In addition, the catalogue also includes four
workbooks / instructional material published
by Jyotsna Prakashan, Pune as part of its
collaboration with two of the Trust’s partners
– Pragat Shikshan Sanstha, Phaltan and
Vanasthali Rural Development Centre, Pune.
This catalogue will provide you an overview of various kinds of books, their central
themes and ideas.
The books are categorized according to age
groups and genres. However, the categorization is suggestive and their most effective
usage lies in the hands of readers/story
tellers/educators/parents. Books marked
for ages 6+ can be well read aloud to young
children while Teachers’ Resource books can
be read by teens. Books are listed under one
category to avoid duplication.
This annotated catalogue lists the books
published by three of Trust’s partners, under
the following categories.
a) Picture Books
b) Poems
c) Young Readers
d) Activity Books
e) Teachers’ Resource Books
Title of books indicate languages in which
the book is available. If a book is available in
multiple languages same is mentioned.
More books are being developed with support from Parag and we hope to update
the catalogue from time to time and also
create an online version. We welcome your
feedback!

Hindi title: Asafal School; Translated by:

Price: Rs. 80/Title available in Hindi and English
‘Summerhill’ is an account of
a progressive school, set up by
A.S. Neil in United Kingdom;
which stood the test of time and
demonstrated that the happiness
of a child grows from personal
freedom. Neil’s unique, rich
experiences of the school, and his
perspectives on play, work, obedience, fear, sex, etc. makes it a must
read to get an insight into children
and learning, child rearing and
parenthood.
What happens in our classrooms?
Why are children not able to use
their potential to the fullest? Why
do they fail? The book revolves
around such critical questions. It
captures the author’s radical beliefs
that children are born inquisitive
and love to learn. Unfortunately,
they succumb under system’s
practices of conformity. It logically
unfolds the mystery in four parts;
namely, strategy, fear and failure,
real learning and how school fails.
The author vividly puts the
specific problems prevalent in the
education system that are a major
deterrent in children’s learning
and growth. This book raises few
vital issues like the rat race for
college, reading failures, tyranny of
testing, teachers talking too much,
etc. This is a powerful book which
impels one to reflect and reassess
one’s methods of administration
and teaching.
