TAKDIR
THE TIGER CUB
by Latika Nath Rana
photographs Nanda
Shumshere Jung Bahadur Rana
Takdir
is a tiger cub. He lives in a thick jungle. One day, when his
mother, Sita, is away and his sisters are asleep, Takdir decides
to go off on his own. The story of what happens to him is told
through warm photographs and simple text.
Sita and her family are in
Bandhavgarh National Park in central India. Nanda, a
wildlife photographer and film-maker, and Latika, a wildlife
biologist, have studied them for over 10 years. The
photographs bring little children up close to the wild — showing
actual tiger habitat, with leafy forests as well as dry stretches
of scrub. and visually conveying concepts such as natural camouflage.
Even as it initiates simple reading in
two languages, the book is a wonderful first bonding for little children with the wild
— showing as it does that even tigers can be lost and vulnerable and crying for their mothers!
