MEET THE AUTHOR

Silpa’s love for writing started at a very young age. Her first ‘story’ was at 4 years old about a boy who built a house out of marshmallows because he found bricks boring. 

Since that story, she has written several more in her head, often sparked by a silly line she heard someplace or a more somber life lesson. But the stories kept piling up until her own two kids sparked the fire in her to put to paper all those stories that made a home in her thoughts. 

She has some exciting characters waiting for you to meet in her books and hopes that you will come to love them just as much as she has. These are books written for children, inspired by children and aim to bring back the child in the adults that read them to their children.

In addition to dreaming up stories, making up songs with her kids and going on hikes, Silpa holds a PhD in engineering and loves everything about science and space.

A prolific writer, Aditi is  an editor, freelance writer and author of fourteen multi-award winning,  bestselling books and is one of the leading voices speaking about  cultural sensitivity and mindfulness. 

Her passion for diversifying dialogue around third culture life led her to founding the online and in  print collaborative platform RaisingWorldChildren.com in 2017. 

Today,  she helps other writers finesse their books through editing and  personalized coaching. In her spare time, she does workshops to help raise inclusion through culture.
