The Time-Travelling River

Written by Parinita Shetty
Illustrated by Sunaina Coelho

Imagine all the stories rivers could tell us about the past, present and future! Rivers were there when humans wanted to grow food. They were there when humans started to build cities. They are still here, providing water, food and livelihoods. But they are also being treated like rubbish bins. Rivers know how to take care of us, but if we want a future with them, maybe it is time for humans to take care of our precious water bodies.

This is Where We Live

Written by Manjari Chakravarti
Illustrated by Manjari Chakravarti

An ordinary day unfolds through the eyes of Jugnu and Noorie, two felines in Shantiniketan—early morning rays slant in through the windows, fish and fruit sellers do their rounds, and children leave for school. However, as the hours slip by, and kal baisakhi, the spring storm, sweeps in all of a sudden, can the day be anything but extraordinary? Stop and stare at Jugnu and Noorie’s everyday world, discover the tiny details and peel each layer in this wordless and slow picture book.

Suggested age, readers, English difficulty and US school grade are separate labels. Age groups are guidance based on source information or editorial review; unreviewed books are “Not assessed”. A US grade is assigned only with source information or a documented assessment; otherwise it is “Not assessed”. Levels use A1–C2 to indicate reading difficulty. StoryWeaver levels 1/2/3/4 use our approximate A1/A2/B1/B2 guide, labelled “estimated”; this is not an official equivalence. A book-specific assessment takes priority. Other unassessed books are labelled “Not assessed”. Source StoryWeaver levels are retained separately. Classics retain their original English.
