About this title

Synopsis

Deep in the forests of ancient India, a divine child is found by a king. That child-Manikandan, later known as Swami Ayyappa-grows up to become a symbol of strength, compassion, and purpose.

From riding a tiger to fulfilling a divine mission, these stories trace his inspiring journey through adventure, wisdom, and faith.

The Tiger Rider brings Swami Ayyappa's legend to life for young readers, blending mythology with meaningful values like kindness, courage, and selflessness. Written in a gentle, engaging style, it's perfect for children under 12-whether you're sharing age-old traditions or discovering them for the first time.

🪔 Bonus features include:

- Simple storytelling with rich cultural roots

- Reflection prompts for parents and educators

- Bonus colouring pages to spark creativity

Let your child walk the sacred path of Manikandan/Ayyappa, explore the wonders of devotion, and grow with every story.

Beyond children's literature, Preethi draws from her extensive experience in HR, operations, and executive support to empower entrepreneurs and business leaders through her guide, The Ease Equation, which offers practical strategies to create sustainable success with clarity, systems, and support.Whether inspiring children or guiding leaders, Preethi's work is rooted in the same philosophy: helping people feel grounded in values and supported by structure, so they can flourish creatively, personally, and professionally.
