CALM AND QUIET, FAT AND ROBUST, V-E-R-Y MISCHIEVOUS! by Bhabendra Nath Saikia

Experience every alley and every impulse of childhood. What endears the readers to the characters is that none of them are any different from the average child next door who laughs, cries, lies, quarrels and occasionally comes up with that whimsical obsession to do things beyond their means. Set in middle class families of the late seventies, the work takes the reader through situations which are very simple yet leave a lasting mark in the mind. You wouldn’t even realize how, at the end of each episode of Calm and Quiet, Fat and Robust, V-e-r-y Mischievous! either a smile unknowingly spreads across your face, tears well up in your eyes, or leave you thinking, how little children are sometimes so much wiser and nobler than grown-ups.
