Children’s literature in India has undergone significant transformation over the past decade. Moving beyond traditional, didactic narratives, modern literature embraces diverse themes, perspectives, and intersectionality. Contemporary works depict real-life issues such as caste, gender, disability, and societal inequities, fostering empathy and inclusivity. Visual storytelling, too, has evolved, with illustrators playing a pivotal role in addressing mature themes. This paper explores these shifts, presenting a comprehensive review of notable works and their contributions to authentic and transformative storytelling for children.
