Stories have the power to inspire, heal, and bring people together, and Dharshik Pachigolla has already shown that even the youngest voices can tell tales with meaning. With the publication of his book Bed Time Tales, a collection of five short stories, Dharshik has stepped into the world of authorship with creativity, courage, and a love for imagination.
His journey began with a fascination for storytelling. While many children enjoy listening to bedtime stories, Dharshik went a step further—choosing to create his own. Each story in his collection reflects the way he sees the world: with curiosity, kindness, and a playful imagination. Through his writing, he invites readers to share in his world of characters, adventures, and lessons.

What makes Dharshik’s achievement remarkable is not just the act of publishing at such a young stage, but his dedication to shaping multiple stories into one book. This required patience, creativity, and determination—qualities that many writers develop much later in life. His accomplishment shows that children, when encouraged, can achieve extraordinary things while still holding onto the joy of creativity.
Dharshik’s story is also a reminder of the value of self-expression. By turning his thoughts into written words, he has shown other children that storytelling is a gift anyone can share. His journey encourages families and educators to nurture the voices of young writers, reminding us that stories are not limited by age.
Looking ahead, Dharshik dreams of writing more, exploring new themes, and inspiring others with his words.
At GCPA, we proudly celebrate Dharshik Pachigolla—a young author whose stories remind us that imagination has no limits, and that every tale told carries the power to inspire.
