Lights Out

Description

Karthik and his father discover a sparrow’s nest in an electrical junction box. Turning the streetlights on would electrocute the little bird and destroy her eggs, but keeping the lights off would mean plunging the village into darkness every night!

Is that a sacrifice Karthik can convince the villagers to make? Vibha Batra’s introspective tale, based on a true story, is brought alive by Sahitya Rani’s stark, monochromatic illustrations.
