Mother and a child were living a happy life. There was a lot of love between mother and child. The child used to go to school.
One day the child comes home and gives a letter to his mother and says, my teacher has given me this paper and said to me to show you.

After many years ago when the child turned to a young man age and his mother had died, he found a paper (which was given to him by his teacher) while he was going through the closet.
He opened it. The message written over there was “Your son is mentally ill and we can’t let him attend our school anymore”. The young man became very emotional and wrote in his diary, “I was the mentally ill child and my mother turned me into the genius of the century”.
He was none other than Thomas Elva Edison. A well-known personality who is famous for the invention of the bulb.
Moral: A mother’s love and upbringing can change the destiny of the child.

Each of the books is under rupees 40.
The event was inaugurated by the president of IGNCA Trust Shri Ram Bahadur Rai. He said that today's generation youths are more eager and faster as compared to the previous generation and are more eager to writings and readings. He emphasised the importance of library by saying that "There should be a revolution of libraries". He also appreciated Best Book Buddies and said this initiative will surely develop the habits of reading and writing among today's youths.
Dr. Sachidanand Sinha, Member Secretary at IGNCA also addressed the gatherings. By linking World Environment Day with this e-Books launching event he said this e-book strategy is also a step in terms of saving plants from cutting down which are required for printed books. He also said technology has conquered us from all its sides and we are using this technology in a more better way. At the last of his speech, he appreciated the event and said this program is a milestone towards the world of literature.
Also, a distinguished man Dr. Ramesh Gaur who put his own light thoroughly. He also appreciated the entire BBB team for their all positive efforts.
In the second phase of the event, there was a panel discussion consisting of members Hon'ble Mr. Justice Talwant Singh (Delhi High Court), Dr. Ramesh Gaur (IGNCA), Shri. Lalit Kumar (Kavita Kosh), Shri Anand Khatri (POESIS), Dr. Darvesh Bharti (Author), Ms. Rimina Mohapatra (Taylor & Francis) Group and Mr. Sudhir Gandotra (CEO, Best Book Buddies). They all discussed the topic "Promoting authors and creating e-Books". They also discussed the challenges that BBB is going to face in the future and each of the members gave their best opinion in order to resolve those challenges.
Mr. Sudhir Gandotra gave a few minutes to the audience to ask if they have any query. The entire event was wonderful and the most compelling thing that BBB is going to provide a connection among authors, readers, and publishers. There will be a chain-like structure.
I personally thank the entire BBB team for providing such a platform and special thank to Mr. Sudhir Gandotra Sir who provided me an internship opportunity in such an esteemed organisation where I will learn totally new things which will be helpful for my future career.
