‘When I came to live in
Mussoorie just over fifty years ago, I lived in Maplewood Lodge, a cottage
below Wynberg-Allen School. Its windows opened on to a well-forested
hillside. So naturally I wrote about the trees, wild flowers and birds and
other creatures who lived among them. Then circumstances forced me to move
higher up the mountain and for the last thirty-five years I have lived on the
top floor of Ivy Cottage, in Landour Cantonment. Here there are windows too
and they open on to the sky, clouds, the Doon valley and range upon range of
mountains. And from this perch on the hillside I feel that I am part of the
greater world, mother India as well as the natural world of planet Earth.’ In
this charming collection, Ruskin Bond talks about his various encounters with
the natural world. From the chorus of cicadas to the song of the whistling
thrush, from his love for sea shells to his favourite place on earth, Bond
details why he has such an overwhelming love for nature. This book is for all
who cherish the green world, just as Bond does. Features • A brand new book
celebrating Ruskin Bond’s 82nd birthday • Written by India’s bestselling
author, this book makes for a perfect gift for readers of all ages • A
wonderful way to introduce the wonders of the natural world to children
