    Gadagada Gudugudu by Jeeva RaghunathGadagada gudugudu… the marble rolls from one child’s hand to another in exchange each time for something exciting. The story moves in a straightforward childlike way as, one after the other, it reintroduces simple street games endlessly popular with children. Trundling alongside is the rhythmic refrain that fascinatingly echoes the circular movement of the marble.
