Pari has not only enjoyed reading these with me and on her own but also enjoys discussing the books and all that she learnt from them with everyone in the family.

Besides the vibrant sketches, as a parent, I couldn’t help but note the superior quality of the pages of the book that help the books stay in a condition despite repeated reading by a number of children in the family. This factor is also a huge plus for the activity books in the set. Yes, this book set isn’t limited to story books but also has thoughtfully selected activity books focussing on learning about numbers, colors, shapes, coloring, alphabets and more.

Let’s take a look at the titles in this series:

1. Mighty Raju Activity Book: This activity book has been Pari’s favorite from the start. With dotted pictures waiting to be traced and colored to exercises of spotting the differences to word search to completing and coloring the pictures, this book is packed with fun, colors and opportunities to learn at every turn of the page.
2. Learn Numbers with Mighty Raju: This book introduces children to counting, encouraging them to learn to write perfect number formations while also giving them the opportunity to learn to count objects from colorful pictures. Pari has been loving racing to count the fastest with her cousins in this book.
3. Maths Lessons with Mighty Raju: This title is a wonderful way of helping kids do some study while having fun. This title helps the child learn number names, spell them, count objects, learn before and after numbers, draw and recognize shapes and do much more.
4. Learn the Alphabets with Mighty Raju: Learning the alphabets with interesting rhymes and practicing formation of the alphabets of the English language in the colorful pages is a treat for young learners.
5. Learn Colours and Shapes with Mighty Raju: This book teaches about colors and shapes while sharing interesting trivia about them, making it an exciting read for the child and parent alike.
6. Mighty Raju Spends a Day at the Sea: This book takes little readers to spend a day by the sea, experience an adventure when there surfaces a sea monster and the adventure that follows. This book gifts the feeling of watching a Mighty Raju episode, with the joy of reading a book minus the screen time.
7. Mighty Raju Goes to the Zoo: This book takes children on a trip to the zoo but is not limited to teaching them about what a zoo is like. Instead, the book focuses on an important lesson on how should we behave in a zoo and what all can go wrong if we don’t. In the times when a child had once fallen in the Gorilla cage (and we all know what had happened), this book makes for a good learning for young minds.
8. Mighty Raju Goes to the Mountains: This book packs in the fun of a holiday in the mountains, skiing with friends, making snowmen while also serving a dose of adventure when our little superhero Mighty Raju steps in to save the day.
9. My India with Mighty Raju: This is a beautiful book to briefly yet interestingly introduce children to the rich cultural heritage of India while encouraging families to explore more of India by actually visiting its length and breadth.
10. Eating Healthy with Mighty Raju: This is a book close to my heart. I was touched by the thoughtfulness of introducing the importance of eating healthy to children, especially during the holidays. This book packs in a valuable lesson of why children must steer clear of the lure of junk food with an episode that Pari too could relate to.
11. Mighty Raju’s Desert Adventure: This book shares a camping experience in the desert, introducing children to the life in the arid conditions with a superhero coming to rescue fun.
12. Mighty Raju’s adventure on a Train: This is an exciting train ride with family where Mighty Raju helps fight and capture the goons.
13. Mighty Raju at the Amusement Park: When Raju and his friends come to spend a fun-filled day at the local amusement park, amidst excitement and thrill a scary accident is prevented by Mighty Raju.
14. Mighty Raju Goes into Space: No children’s book series is complete without an adventure in space and attack by the aliens. Pari too is always on the lookout for books on space and quite enjoyed this adventurous episode.
15. Mighty Raju and Festivals: This book introduces young readers to the various Indian festivals in an interesting, fun way.
16. Mighty Raju and the Karati Scare: No superhero story collection is ever complete without an episode where the villain (Karati in this case) tries to destroy the city. This book serves a generous dose of exciting turn of events on how Mighty Raju comes to the rescue, collaborating with the city police to rescue Aryanagar.

This is a balanced series, designed keeping the needs and interests of the children of today. This book is highly recommended for children of 3 to 6 years to help them learn as they come to love reading, solve puzzles and play with colors. This book series is a delight for parents and children alike and is a perfect set to savor in school holidays.
