Description

Told from the point of view of a land called Sherjahaan, this stunning picture book is a true rewilding story set near the Ranthambore Tiger Reserve in India that will inspire young activists and animal lovers.

In the late 1990s, a local couple bought Sherjahaan (land of the tigers), a patch of land next to the famous Ranthambore Tiger Reserve in India. Once tigers roamed freely there, but over-farming and tree-felling upended the ecological balance, and the ground was barren. The couple, moved by the possibilities, got to work. They removed invasive species and fenced the land off from people’s interference, too. And twenty years later, thanks to the dedication of the couple and the natural cycles of the earth, the ecosystem has recovered, and a variety of wildlife, including tigers, have returned.

Beautifully sad and hopeful. The illustration is so captivating and the message is one that we all need to hear. (Received an ARC on netgalley, all opinions are my own.)

Loved the colors and illustration. The artistry here is amazing! The story is appropriate for younger kids although this is labeled for Teens/YA. I read with my 9 year old who loves animals.
