Sign in for personalised guidanceA myth-rich adventure that joins friendship, cultural detail and care for the natural world. Its imaginative journey gives children an active role in responding to environmental damage.
Anya is separated from Pria and is reluctant to play with Mahi, the cook’s daughter; a song links the two children.
The adventure connects environmental damage with a message that children can affect positive change.
Ganga, Makara and other mythological elements accompany a journey through time and space, with references to Indian culture and regional foods.
Pollution, habitat loss and climate change are part of the adventure, alongside separation from a friend and encounters with gods and deities. The portrayal of environmental problems may merit conversation.
