Asha lives in the foothills of the Himalayas. Money is tight and
she misses her papa who works in the city. When he suddenly stops
sending his wages, a ruthless moneylender ransacks their home
and her mother talks of leaving.
From her den in the mango tree, Asha makes a pact with her best
friend, Jeevan, to find her father and make things right. But the
journey is dangerous: they must cross the world's highest mountains
and face hunger, tiredness - even snow leopards.
And yet, Asha has the unshakeable sense that the spirit bird of
her grandmother - her nanijee - is watching over her
A gorgeously original and magical adventure set in India,
for children aged 9 and up.
From the author of Tamarind & the Star of Ishta
- longlisted for the Blue Peter Book Prize.
Explores themes of faith, family and friendship while
capturing the wild, rich heart of contemporary India.
