Over in the Mangroves
Jyoti Rajan Gopal, illustrated by Dikshaa Pawaskar
Inspired by a classic nursery rhyme, this counting story introduces ten animals living in the Sundarbans mangrove forest. From dawn onward, the animals are shown within the same swampy environment, revealing connections among them. As a storm approaches, they seek shelter. The book combines numbered animal encounters with a mangrove setting and weather-driven movement, ending when the storm sends the animals under cover.
