Mamta Nainy is a writer and editor based in New Delhi. She has authored over thirty books for children, including A Brush with Indian Art that won The Hindu Young World-Goodbooks Award 2019 and Mutthasi’s Missing Teeth that won the Peek-a-Book Children’s Choice Award 2019. She also works as a literary translator, translating primarily from English to Hindi, with several published works of translations.
Mamta thinks that the only good part about being an adult is that she can choose to have an ice-cream for breakfast and a cake for lunch. She loves travelling but is too lazy to do it, so she mostly makes do with reading.
