Dugga’s days are full of exciting things to see and incredible things to sniff. She sleeps, eats and plays as only a happy dog can. Until, one day, her life is turned upside down.

Earth, Our Home

Written by Anushka Ravishankar, Karthika Nair, Salil Chaturvedi, Sampurna Chattarji
Illustrated by Aindri C

The story of Earth is the story of life. It is also a story of loss, one worsened by climate change. But while the climate crisis can be a story of devastation, the work being done to mitigate it, to adapt to it, brings hope. And reminds us, our future is in our hands. The verses in this book tell these stories, in the voices of the orangutan, the Hasdeo Arand forest, the Gangetic dolphin and the Pondicherry shark.

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.
