We sell online all the eight titles in the "Vikram Aditya Adventure Series" by acclaimed author Deepak Dalal.
Deepak Dalal chucked up a career as a chemical engineer to write stories for children. He lives currently in Pune with his wife, two daughters and several dogs and cats. He enjoys wildlife, nature and the outdoors. The Sahyadri Hills of Pune are a short journey
from his home. When not at his desk writing, he is either trekking their slopes or cycling their valleys.
The VikramAditya series of books are ideal school readers. It is breadth of the Indian experience they provide that appeals to schools. The stories take the reader on a magical journey from Ladakh to Lakshadweep, from the Andaman Islands to the Sahyadri, and
across the great forests of India. Importantly, the stories deal with critical issues like environment, wildlife and conservation. The stories create a connection between schoolchildren and wilderness areas – adding a dimension that is sorely lacking given
the urban nature of their lives today.
More than a 100 schools have used books from the VikramAditya series as readers.
