About the Book

Hey daydreamers!! If you love to wander your mind into no-where, or if your parents tell you to "stop daydreaming", then this is the book for you. These 10 short stories from Avee's childhood will tickle your brain, give you goosebumps and show you how awesomely flawed his mind is. So are you ready to go on a roller-coaster ride filled with emotions?***So what's inside this book? ***This book is a collection of short stories of how Avee's mind worked. He was a boy with a special gift, and he knew it. But the world did not. He was a sensitive kid. He felt more than anyone else, but did not find a way to express it. He excelled in the art of daydreaming. He could find patterns between unrelated situations and create stories in his head like no other kid. Without being in water, he could sense the silence that a fish felt. Without lifting a toe, he could jump from one mountain to another. And without holding a bird in his palms, he got tickled by her feathers. Such were his senses, heightened most of the time. When he was still, with his eyes open wide, you knew he was at it. "Stop daydreaming!... and focus on your studies", Avee dreaded these words from his mother. He heard this almost every day of his pre-teen life. Avee was a visual learner and loved to make up stories in his head. This made him feel better about the world he lived in. And what was wrong with that! Except that he saw everything in "panorama" mode and stretched every moment like a "slow-motion" video, while the world was supposedly on "time-lapse" mode. Embrace yourself for a roller-coaster ride of such intensely-felt stories from the awesomely flawed mind of a boy, a sensitive boy full of imagination and emotions. These ten incidents might have actually happened to him, only if you saw them from his point of view!*** Here's a bit about the daydreamer & author - Avinash Jhangiani aka Avee ***Avee was born and raised in Kolkata, India. After 3 career shifts from technology consulting to digital marketing to transformation consulting, which spanned across 20 years, 9 cities globally, and more than 40 clients across industries, Avee realized that the only way to stay relevant is by continuously disrupting oneself. He left his fast-growing, cushy career at the age of 42 to find his true calling, which is to make our children and younger generation as future ready as possible. Avee is the curator of India's first Book of Dreams titled "I dream...", co-authored by children across India. With an exclusive foreword by Nobel Peace Laureate, Kailash Satyarthi, this book is a result of a year-long social initiative called "Dream On, India!" that captures dreams of over 10,000 children visualizing the future of India, and aligns to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.In 2019, Avee was felicitated as "Exemplary Mentor of Change" by NITI Aayog's Atal Innovation Mission. Avee believes that his daydreaming skills helped him win the Innovation Quest award at Deloitte, USA. Under his leadership, PHD India won 4 awards at the prestigious Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity during 2012-16. On any given day, you can catch Avee daydreaming at the Powai lake in Mumbai or building innovation capacities in young, underprivileged children.
