The people are happy and live in peace. As the years roll by, it is time to decide who will succeed to the throne.

Book Description
Here’s some food for thought: Are you aware that a lot of food waste comes from our homes? Isn’t it surprising that huge quantities of produce are dumped because they can’t reach the consumer on time? Every time we waste food, we hurt the environment. There are many people in the world who go hungry to bed, even as there are others who eat way too much, more than their share. What can we do about this? Think, Eat, Save gently reminds us of nature’s kindness and teaches us to care for it by eating responsibly and recycling whenever possible. It suggests easy ways of reducing wastage, such as taking small portions, planning our meals, and sharing food with others. These simple yet effective measures will go a long way in conserving our natural resources.

Where does our food come from? Trees and plants. How do plants make this food? Through the process of photosynthesis. What causes photosynthesis? Sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide. How does the water reach plants and trees? Through soil. How does the soil take water to trees and plants? Through small stems and huge tree trunks.

Along the way, it provides glimpses into the many wonders of natural phenomena.

Book Description
Kali hates school. And school hates him, he thinks, for he has no friends. The children there find him strange. He wishes his father were an 'ordinary' bus-conductor or postman instead of a snake-catcher, even if one of the most celebrated in the Irula tribe. He worries that others will see him eating fried termites (his favourite snack!) and laugh. And then one day, a large rat snake creates havoc in the classroom . . . and Kali becomes a hero! A simple, sensitive story crafted by a writer deeply involved with environmental issues. Zai Whitaker works closely with the Irulas, and her empathy with them is as evident in this book as it was with the Jarawas in Andamans Boy, also published by Tulika. The watercolour illustrations are evocative and detailed, suffusing the story with many hues of mood.
