Once upon a time, in a little village in India, there lived an old woman. Everyone in the village called her Grandma. One day, Grandma received a letter from her daughter, who lived on the other side of the jungle. 'Please come and visit me,' said the letter. 'I haven't seen you in so long. I miss you.'
And so, Grandma begins a perilous journey to the far side of the jungle. Can she use her keen wit to escape the jungle animals and make it safely home?
Chitra Divakaruni's sharp, rhythmic retelling of this Bengali folktale is complimented perfectly by Susy Pilgrim Waters's brightly coloured, captivating illustrations.
Chitra Divakaruni's first book in the Brotherhood of the Conch series, The Conch Bearer, was a Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year, and a Booklist Editor's Choice. Her other work includes five highly praised novels for adults, two prize-winning short story collections, and two volumes of poetry. Among the awards she has received are the O. Henry Prize, two Pushcart Prizes and the American Book Award. Born in India, she currently lives in Texas where she teaches creative writing at the University of Houston and lives with her husband Murthy, her two sons Anand and Abhay. Susy Pilgrim Waters is an illustrator, designer and painter. She has created murals for the New York City Public Library as well as other large scale commissioned work. Originally from England, Susy lives in Boston with her husband, Keith, their dog, Tillie, two cats and two bunnies. They have two children. This is her first picture book.
