In these four interlinked stories about Nikhil and Jay and their family, there's always fun and mischief. Jay wants to do things by himself on his birthday, but sharing with Nikhil turns out to be more fun. They all go to visit Grandad and Nana, but where is the story dragon? Then it's Pancake Day, the day when Amma makes yummy dosa, Indian pancakes. And last but not least, Nikhil and Jay help to lead a campaign to save their local library from closing. 

The Nikhil and Jay stories are perfect for children moving on from picture books to longer stories, helped by Soofiya's lively and characterful illustrations.

Chitra Soundar is a very well-known and popular writer for children. Born in Chennai, India, she has written over 40 books, including Pattan's Pumpkin for Otter-Barry Books (2017). With the first two Nikhil and Jay books, she says it is no coincidence that she has two young nephews of whom she is extremely fond, and who appreciate her skills in creating spicy, tasty vegetarian meals. Chitra divides her time between south London and Chennai.

Soofiya is a visual artist and illustrator. Soofiya’s work and writing explore ideas around race, gender and bodies. Their illustrations and design clients include Tate Britain, Mayor of London, Hachette, BBC, Nike and many more.  They live close to the sea, and like to spend weekends painting, eating good food and taking care of their houseplants. You can see more of their work here: soofiya.com
