Why Lawtoons ?

Graphics are one of the oldest forms of story-telling known to human civilization and communicate effectively to people of all ages. The useful information about citizenship, democracy, laws and rights that children learn in their schools through the civics curriculum is often passed off as ‘dull and boring’. Even upon growing up, an individual is likely to be intimidated by the bulky law books full of legal jargons. This unfortunately, results in a society where most people find it difficult to relate to the idea of laws and legal systems, and feel disconnected. Lawtoons is one of its kind project that uses illustrations to make the laws and legal rights easier to understand as well as fun to learn. Through the medium of comics and storytelling, we create Lawtoons, which children and grown-ups really enjoy reading.

Lawtoons is one of India’s earliest and quirkiest attempts to make the law kid-friendly, turning big legal ideas into colourful comics for children aged 10–14 (and honestly, plenty of grown-ups love them too!).

Over the years, Lawtoons has travelled across cities, classrooms, communities, and continents, sparking curiosity wherever it goes. And every time, we are reminded of something beautiful: once you make the law relatable, people light up.
Suddenly, rights don’t feel like heavy textbook material. They feel real, alive, and part of everyday life.

We’ve shared Lawtoons with hundreds of children from every possible background: schools, colleges, libraries, startup competitions, legal innovation events, community groups… and everywhere, the reaction is the same: “Ohhh, this is what the law means!” Characters like Pugloo and Judgni somehow make even the trickiest legal concepts feel simple, fun, and wonderfully human.

And now – we’d love to partner with you!

Creating these comics takes a whole lot of imagination, research, writing, drawing, designing, and coffee (lots of coffee!). We continue to work with brilliant artists and professionals to make sure every Lawtoon educates, entertains, and empowers.

Lawtoons has always been a community-driven labour of love. It is open, accessible, and shaped by everyone who believes that legal awareness should start young, be joyful, and be for everyone.
