New Delhi (India), March 1: Not for nothing, an Indian researcher in child psychology suggested that the maximum role in the development of child prodigies is played by the environment. Master Atharv Sharma, 14, a student in class 9th, drew inspiration from the reading habits of his parents and his grandfather. A personal library of about 6000 books on various subjects – fiction, sports, mythology, history and many more, has been instrumental in his growing craze for reading and writing at such a growing age. After gathering whatever came to him for reading, he developed into an avid reader and by himself jumped to bring out his first quiz book, which clearly indicates the wide spectrum of his knowledge on various topics – general, history, science, sports, personalities, arts, culture etc. it is to be emphasized that all the questions in 70 quizzes comprising of 10 questions in each area of the interest for all ages. Most interestingly, he has introduced questions as challenges in the form of detailed information about the related matter. A few topics of general interest are also included giving some very curious and interesting facts.

Within a short span of nearly 3 months, he was ready with his second quiz book dedicated to Indian History and mythology. A bank of a number of books on these subjects by various authors has been the prime source of the width and depth of a reservoir of important facts and figures. Atharv seems to have deeply explored all the information and literature before coming out with this masterpiece. 

The 900+ questions in his second quiz book reflect a requirement of intricate knowledge of our rich heritage, must-know facts and finer details of history. Interestingly the questions cover every nook and corner of the country from north to south and east to west, be it names of books, events, festivals, rulers and saints. To answer these questions, one has to be an avid reader of history and mythology and be able to segregate the common from the astonishing.
