Who’s reading Little Master?

When I first wrote Little Master, I never thought the book would appeal to readers of all ages. I was expecting that my readers would be mostly school-going kids, and possibly some conscientious teachers and parents. After all, it was going to be a story about a lost and lonely schoolboy who ‘escapes’ school and goes on a marvelous voyage of self-discovery. He uncovers the amazing secrets of learning and the wonderful secrets of life. It’s all about exploration, learning and discovery that perhaps only kids would be interested in.

That’s what I thought and I’m glad that I was wrong.

I find adults reading, enjoying and being enriched by this book just as much as the kids are. I meet college students who say their life took a new course after they read the book. I hear from teachers and parents almost every day how the book changed the way they look at children, how they see, treat and teach them. And of course the kids, they’re never the same after they’ve read the book. For they’ve now found a new meaning in life and a whole new purpose to learning.

So now when someone asks me who the book is for, I say it’s for everyone and I mean it. Because there really is something in Little Master for everyone, whether a learner, a teacher, a parent, a youngster or an adult.

Learners
No real learning can take place when you are caught in a whirlpool of tests, grades, degrees and certificates. That’s not learning. That’s madness. True learning explores your genius and inspires you to greatness. Little Master can be your guide.

Teachers
There are plenty of things for teachers. There is in fact a complete chapter dedicated to you – What a teacher! You shape the destiny of countless lives and you literally steer the course of the world. You carry in your hand a staff of greatness, a true magic wand. Don’t ever let your magic wand turn into a cane of torture, a devil’s weapon! You can let Little Master remind you, now and then, when you are unsure or tend to falter.

Parents
The greatest healers in the world – that’s the chapter for parents. Why healers? Read it and you will know. You are healers when you know. Surely you have seen parents who are killers – they murder their children’s greatness without the slightest compunction. That’s what can happen when you don’t know.

Youngsters
Hormones, society and so many other things can play havoc on your life when you are young and growing. You could easily lose direction, and you could even commit dreadful acts out of ignorance. But when you know your own greatness, petty things lose their sting. Reading Little Master can help, truly.

Adults
No matter how old you are, there’s a kid in you, alive and kicking. Or has that kid already died? If he/she has, then revive him/her. An adult is no adult if they have no kid in them. Read Little Master and let the kid in you come alive one more time, full of wonder, amazement and questions – questions that you have either forgotten to ask or are too scared to ask. You get the answer only when you ask.

So there you see, Little Master a book for everyone. And it’s no wonder. Packed within its 108 pages is ageless wisdom and timeless inspiration told in the form of a fascinating tale that both young and old can enjoy. I even dare say, and hopefully without bias, that if you want to read just one book in your lifetime, make it Little Master. You’ll do yourself a lot of good.

Happy reading.
