Here are the wonderful things kids are learning through Sochu:

18000+ Happy Parents and Children Across India

Our goal was to write stories that would be valuable for children today. We've been touched by parents sharing stories of how Sochu has been part of many meaningful learning journeys and helped them develop a love of reading in their kids.

Here's WHY Sochu Books Really Work For Today's Children!

The CHARACTERS of Sochu are simple yet memorable - children often see themselves and their friends in these characters.

The stories of Sochu are SUPER RELATABLE to our children's everyday lives!

Sochu stories are vibrantly illustrated, with bold, easy-to-read text, yet highly philosophical in their ideas!

They have life lessons not only for children, but adults as well. This is why these books work for a wide age group of 4-12 years... And we have customers with children as young as 2 years who also love Sochu!

As C.S. Lewis famously stated, "A children's story that can only be enjoyed by children is not a good children's story in the slightest."

WHY did we decide to make Sochu?

Seeing the impact that entertainment has on children’s minds, I have dedicated my life to creating content that is wholesome, mindful, and inclusive. Through Sochu, children learn 21st-century skills... while being thoroughly entertained!

Age No Bar:

While we recommend Sochu Books for ages 4-12, we believe that every child is different! Let's THINK OUTSIDE THIS BOX of age!

We have customers with children as young as 2 years who pick up on behaviours and emotions from these stories and use Sochu Books instead of screen time. We also have mothers and fathers who themselves enjoy reading Sochu Books. And so, if you are open to it, the quirky ways of learning through Sochu Books can work for any age group, including ADULTS!

I have all three bundles of the Sochu Series, and I can say with certainty that my 8-year-old daughter loves them. What strikes me most is that she doesn't just read them once—she keeps coming back to them again and again, which is the truest sign of a book's impact. Why She Loves Them: When I asked my daughter why she's so fond of these books, her answer was simple but telling: "I can easily connect to these characters. The kids feel like my friends." The illustrations are nice and funny, which keeps her engaged throughout. But it's more than just the visuals—it's the relatability that keeps her turning the pages. What Parents Will Appreciate: What impressed me most as a parent is the tone. These books don't preach. Instead, they speak to children as friends would—honest, warm, and without judgment. This approach is powerful because when kids recognize that other children are going through the same issues they face, the stories touch their hearts on a deeper level. The books also do something remarkable: they show that even adults struggle with the same challenges. By normalizing vulnerability across all ages, the Sochu Series sends an important message—that these feelings and experiences aren't tied to age or maturity. Everyone faces them, and that's okay. The Takeaway: If you're looking for books that entertain and help your child feel seen and understood, the Sochu Series delivers on both fronts. My daughter's repeated returns to these stories speak louder than any review could. They've become her trusted companions.

Sochu Doing Series (Set of 12 Books)

Customer photo review of Series 1 & 2 (Set of 24 Books) - BOX SIZED SETS

I am sparkling with excitement while writing this review. My 2 year 3 month old is responding so well to Sochu books. I have never been able to engage her so well with books. To my utter surprise,she is actually getting the flow of events and the unique thoughts that the book instills in their mind. For example - she keeps telling everyone that superhero lives inside my mind. To say the least, I am thoroughly enjoying such a well researched book for my child that's available now. It's a great investment. A lot of other books in the market are way below a child's potential. Every child is a genius. They just need right stimulation at the right time. Sochu books are definitely the right step. Thank you, Chetan Vohra for coming up with such a great compilation of books.

Customer photo review of Series 1 - Thinking Edition (Set of 12 Books) - BOX SIZED SET

Hi Team Sochu, I'm thoroughly enjoying reading the books myself as an adult! One set of Sochu and Feelu series were gifted to the Deenabandhu Trust, Chamrajnagar, Karnataka. A dear friend who is the Administrator and in charge of many new projects especially related to make English learning engaging, decided to keep the books at her place instead of the library to make them accessible to those who are trying to learn English. She shared that, Shreyas a 14 year old boy has completed the Sochu series and is on the Feelu series and he is enjoying them a lot. Shreyas shared with her, "Akka i feel like i am the main character of these books, that's the best part!" My friend has also read through the Sochu series and speaks really highly of the same too. She says that it is a very nice way for engaging and well-rounded learning to take place. So yes, thank you for the wonderful creation that is touching and changing lives for good! More power and strength to the team and the Sochu Feelu journey!

Hi, this is Anaya Talmale. I am 7 years old. I live in Mumbai. I have read both the sochu series 1&2. They are very interesting. I like the characters: Sochu because he loves to think about new ideas, Anju because she loves to read books, Manju because she loves to play games, Rehman because he loves to communicate through music, Robert because he loves to sleep, Mrs Kumar because she loves to practice yoga all the time, Daadi because she enjoys life to the fullest, Mr Kumar because he loves to write and illustrate books and Mr Williams because he has the heart of an 8- year old and he is a jolly teacher. I like the glossary which helps me understand the story better. Then I love to solve the crossword puzzle. I also love the asanas in each and every book. I too practice some of them. I love both the book series because in the first series they generate curiosity, and in the second series they help us deal with our own emotions. I can relate to the character Sochu as I face the similar situation in my daily life. My request is that please release book series 3&4 very soon. Regards from Me and my mom who love to read it together everyday 💕

Books are indeed a vast source of knowledge and one can change their life for good if the habit of reading is inculcated early on. Sochu books are unique and triggers the young minds to think which is especially important in this data driven and social media craziness world. My son loves them, he doesn't get bored reading them again and again. It will be great If the developers can come with more books on varied topics.

Series 1 & 2 (Set of 24 Books) - POCKET SIZED SETS

When I ordered it I was not sure whether my son who is going to be 12 will like it or not. But the topics like expressing your feelings, not suppressing your emotions are explained so nicely that I think even teenagers should also read it. My son is fond of reading books. And he is truly loving this set.

Customer photo review of Sochu Books Series 2 - Feelings Edition (Set of 12) [Pre-Order - deliveries begin end of AUGUST 2022]

Sochu books are loved in my family by me, my husband, our kids, neices and nephew. They make you wonder... think and feel and ask yourself about little things in life. The little actions, thoughts, emotions which are the building blocks in our life and deserve to be explored... I guess thats what Sochu aims at. When children/adults are clear on what and why they are doing they will be more aware and content in life. It nudges individuals to become aware of their thoughts, feelings, intentions and inner power

Sochu Books Series 2 - Feelings Edition (Set of 12) [Pre-Order - deliveries begin end of AUGUST 2022]

Loved the thoughtfulness in creating stories. Each books talks about a very valuable lesson needed in life. Just when we thought Sochu was the best, there comes Feelu. Beautifully conveyed everything about feelings. Not just their name or when we experience it but even how to cope with it. Very happy with our purchase :)

Sochu Books Series 2 - Feelings Edition (Set of 12 Books - POCKET SIZED SET)

My son was never keen to read books. But ever since he started reading Sochu, he has been asking me for more Sochu books. He says "by reading sochu books he has learnt new words, values, the thoughts mentioned in the books have amazed him". We would be eagerly waiting for the next series after the FEELU books. Grateful to the entire Sochu team.

I'll give this book a 4.2 stars.I think this book is for 6-10 years old kid but I read this book because I want to take some experience from this book. So, it was quite good experience. I only want to tell that this book is great for kids so that they'll learn many things about their life that studying is not only the goal of our life we have make friends and enjoy the life so we will be actually successfull. That's what I want to say. This is a great book.

Sochu Books Series 1 - Thinking Edition (Set of 12 Books - BOX SIZED SET)

I loved the concept of the books. They are based on the everyday tiny battles faced by children mentally and on the moral values too. Although it’s not for children below four years of age as the font of the smaller size of books is small. You should print something for 1-3 years old children too. However I personally loved the books.
