From Screens to Storybooks: How Chhavi Mehta Is Transforming Today’s Kids into Tomorrow’s Authors
In an age where screens compete for every second of a child’s attention, the simple joy of holding a book, dreaming up a story, or letting the imagination roam free is slowly fading. But Chhavi Mehta—a visionary educator, parenting coach, and founder of Young Authors Launchpad—is bringing that magic back, one young storyteller at a time.
Chhavi Mehta created the Young Authors Launchpad with a clear mission: to rekindle a love for reading and writing in children. As a seasoned public speaking mentor and parenting guide, she noticed something deeply concerning—kids had incredible imaginations but lacked the confidence or platform to bring their stories to life.
Determined to change that narrative, Chhavi began hosting interactive workshops where children are encouraged to explore their thoughts, pen down their stories, and shape them
into actual books. With personal guidance, creative nurturing, and consistent support, these raw ideas evolve into illustrated and published works—turning young dreamers into proud, young authors.

One such milestone moment unfolded at the pre-launch of Young Authors Launchpad at Kunzum Bookstore, New Delhi. The event wasn’t just a gathering—it was a celebration.
Seven budding authors stood in front of a packed room of parents, mentors, and peers, reading from their own published books. It was a heartwarming reminder that with the right encouragement, children can move mountains—or in this case, publish stories that inspire others.
For Chhavi Mehta, this movement is much bigger than books. It’s about empowering children through storytelling. She believes that when a child sees their words printed, their self-belief skyrockets. Writing becomes a gateway to growth, emotional expression, and confidence-building.
Her goal? To impact 10,000 young authors through her programs. Each session at Young Authors Launchpad goes beyond grammar and structure. Children learn public speaking, build self-esteem, and discover the power of their own voice.
Recognition, such as the Dr. Sarojini Naidu International Award for Working Women, has honored Chhavi’s contributions. But what fuels her passion is the sparkle in a child’s eyes as they hold their first book. “That moment,” she says, “is living proof that dreams can come true—with a little help and a lot of heart.”
As the driving force behind Young Authors Launchpad, Chhavi Mehta is redefining childhood education. She’s not just helping children write stories—she’s helping them write their own futures.
