Richa Jha is a picture book author and the founder and publisher of Pickle Yolk Books, an independent children’s publishing house. Picture books written by her delve into the internal world of children and adults as they explore the many ways in which the mind thinks, stoops, rejects, questions, plays tricks, recovers, sings, flies and empowers. Her works have been translated into several languages, including Hindi, Malayalam, Bangla, Kannada and Marathi in India, and in French, Polish, Russian and Thai. Most of her titles have won national and international recognition across platforms.  A passionate advocate of picture books being a wholesome read for all ages, she believes that there is no better life coach than a picture book created just right.
