Televisionpoint.com Correspondent | Mumbai
Popular Prakashan, a leading publishing house, has released five new titles based on Disney Pixar's new computer-animated comedy movie Wall-E (Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class). The books aim at teaching children about saving environment and spreading love towards the nature.

Manish Purohit, CEO, Popular Prakashan, said, "With stunning photographs and well-designed graphic and text features, the titles will help children to cultivate interest in science fiction, technology and electronics, inspiring them to think in scientific and logical direction."

"We also believe in giving children an opportunity to hone their skills in art. And these new titles cater to this need. They will help children learn the art of drawing and coloring with fun," Purohit added.

Wall-E is written and directed by Andrew Stanton, produced by Jim Morris, co-produced by Lindsey Collins and features original sound design by Ben Burtt.

Wall-E takes moviegoers on a remarkable journey across the galaxy, and demonstrates Pixar's ability to set new standards for storytelling, character development, music composition and state-of-the-art CG animation.

Earlier this year, Disney Publishing Worldwide (India), a division of The Walt Disney India, has entered into a licensing agreement with Popular Prakashan to publish classic Disney storybooks such as The Jungle Book, Aladdin, The Lion King, Winnie the Pooh, Bambi, Cinderella, Tarzan and Peter Pan in Hindi and Marathi.

Disney Publishing Worldwide (DPW) is the largest children's publisher in the world, with 274 million copies of children's magazines sold worldwide and 120 million children's books sold each year. A leading comic book publisher, Disney Publishing has been producing comic books since 1930, with more than 340 regular titles read in more than 80 countries around the globe.
