About the Author

Shonit Baradia has been fascinated by puzzles since childhood, a passion first sparked by his father and maternal grandfather. What began as a family pastime has grown into a lifelong love for problem-solving and a mission to share that joy with others. This book brings together a collection of his favourite logic grids and puzzles for children, each one handwritten and drawn from his personal library of more than 5,000 thought-provoking challenges. For Shonit, puzzles are not just entertainment but a way to sharpen thinking, build patience and spark creativity. When he isn’t designing puzzles, Shonit enjoys exploring how logic and problemsolving can be woven into everyday life. He is also working on two new games: a word game that blends elements of crosswords, Taboo®and word scramble, and a historythemed trivia challenge that puts dates at the heart of the questions.
