| Description | 28p Orange Spine |
| Note | Mati pesters her grandmother and father for her own plot of land in the big field. When she does get it, she works hard. And then she hears that a company wants to make a coal mine in their village – the enormous black pit that will eat up all their lands, like it has in the next village. The little girl's anxiety about losing her land to a 'monster machine', cuts close to the heart as it takes heads-on an issue that is ravaging tribal Chhatisgarh, where this story is set, and every other place where there is 'development' at a cost. Read about two fiesty females, Mati and her Ajji, who will not give in. |
