Description



Book Synopsis



A girl's love for her dad shines in this exquisitely illustrated story about the honey gatherers of the Sundarbans.

Where is Baba? Why isn't he back yet? Jhupli is restless as evening sets in. Her father, Baba, has gone into the dense jungle to gather honey, and she's worried. There are tigers in there--and sometimes people go into the jungle and don't come back out. Jhupli wonders, Why must Baba be in danger every day? Then Jhupli has an idea, one that might help keep her father and other honey gatherers safe: honey bee boxes!

In this striking picture book first published in India, gorgeous artwork brings to life the magnificent Sundarbans region, a place as menacing as it is beautiful, and highlights the love between a resourceful young girl and her dad.
