Raising Rahul

I have a theory. Behind every adult with amazing childhood memories is a sleep-deprived, tortured set of parents. If one were to believe my wife, my parents are, without doubt, easily the most tortured set since the dawn of humanity.

This collection of short stories is intended to be read by kids and adults alike.

Folks with receding hairlines and emerging potbellies will hopefully recognize themselves in the various antics of Rahul and his gang of general troublemakers.

As for the kids themselves, I hope you take inspiration from Rahul and unleash general mayhem on your friends, family, teachers, and occasionally, the unsuspecting passerby.

Contrary to what anyone may say, this is the only time in your life when you have a free pass to explore your creativity and cause chaos wherever you go, with no consequences.

Dream big, dream wild, and enjoy reading this collection.
