DINABEN AND THE LIONS OF GIR
by
Meera Sriram and Praba Ram


Dinaben is a Maldhari and her village is right in the middle of the
Gir forest where the lions live. How does she live? What does
she do? This book offers glimpses into the many aspects of life
in the forest through simple text and photographs. Children will
find it easy to follow the story in two languages.


The Gir forest in Gujarat is the
only home of the Asiatic lions in
the world. And the Maldharis have
been coexisting with the lions for centuries. If the forest is not protected, neither the Maldharis
and their way of life, nor the lions
will survive for long.
 


 

 Meera and Praba talk about how a simple idea evolved into a telling pictorial narrative about the Maldaharis and the lions
 who share space under a shrinking forest cover in Gir, Gujarat
