A hilarious, laugh-out-loud adventure by popular author duo Kalpish Ratna

A Pandemonium in Pakshila subtly deals with themes of environmental conservation and living in harmony with the natural world.

About the book:

What if a whole lot of strangers, human and animal, waiting for rescue decided you were JustIt? And you hadn’t a clue what the rescue was all about? It all began with a letter from an Uncommon Aunt. How exactly do you ask your Aunt if she’s a frog or something slithery in the grass?

You simply have to climb into a vegetable basket and float up Cloud Street … and you will find yourself in the midst of a Pandemonium in Pakshila.

Join JustIt and Anil the Excluded Squirrel in this exciting adventure, solve a mystery and trap the villain in a thrilling climax.
