Jungu: The Baiga Princess
by Vithal Rajan
Available now★★★★★
Jungu is a story about a friendship between Sunil, a boy sent to stay with his uncle, and Jungu, a Baiga tribal girl who lives in a village in the forest. Her home is under threat because the land is being set aside for tigers, and a dangerous gang of poachers is working close by. It's a warm, gentle way for children to learn about forest life, tribal rights and why nature needs protecting. Naturalist Srivi Kalyan's drawings bring the forests of Madhya Pradesh to life.
