Stories have the power to make children laugh, imagine, think, communicate and connect.

Join Dr. Sheettal Rayathatha for two specially designed storytelling sessions at Makurday Bookstore, where every child becomes part of the story—not just a listener.

Whether your child is just beginning their reading journey or already loves books, these interactive sessions are designed to make stories come alive.

With over 20 years of experience working with children, educators and families, Dr. Sheettal is an educator, psychologist, communication coach and storyteller. She has conducted storytelling programs across schools, learning centres and festivals, and has been part of the planning committee of the Chennai Storytelling Festival since 2023. She is also an award-winning educator and the author of books on storytelling and personal development. 

Her sessions combine storytelling with communication, imagination, emotional intelligence and joyful participation.
