Why I Created Vaaranam Children's Books

Quite often, as my son got older, he ripped a couple of pages of the Tamil books rather easily and even chewed them to bits. I desperately wanted to read to my son in Tamil so that he will develop an interest in the language. So, I scaled the internet to find better quality Tamil books only to find more of the same.
