When Indian skies turn gray and vendors unfurl their protective blue canvases, everyone knows a monsoon is on its way. And when no one wants to risk getting rained on to play with her, a spirited child must make her own monsoon magic.
FLASH! Sudden lightning in the sky.
Followed by the distant thunders cry.
Alone in this garden, the world comes to a standstill.
Listen to the weather within your skin.
When she's danced and twirled enough, the girl heads for shelter and roasted corn, crispy pakora skins, and warm tea with her family; the perfect cozy ending to a tête-à-tête with the wild above.
Ishita Jain’s sensory-rich prose and dreamy watercolor illustrations vividly evoke her own cherished memories of monsoon adventures in Delhi. Soothing and exhilarating in equal measure, Monsoon Mayhem will make you hope for a storm of your own.
