| Note | Angry ghosts, whispering ghosts, social media ghosts, ghosts who lurk inside books, ghosts who appear in the biryani pot…find all kinds of spooky beings in this collection of stories by one of India’s favourite children’s writers. Ajji may have died, but her presence hangs around the abacus she used, always ready to pick faults in her grandchildren and point out their mistakes. But when a royal necklace goes missing, only Ajji can save the day. Banno Bi says she is a witch, and the neighbourhood children stay far away from her. Yet it is to Banno Bi and her djinns they turn when they are in trouble and need help. Dhani’s life may have ended too soon, but can he take the help of his old laptop and his social media account to bring a bully to justice? And when a biryani vs Pulao battle breaks out in Nawabi Lucknow, who else can settle scores but the ghost of a celebrated chef? Subhadra Sen Gupta ghost stories are curious, quirky and entertaining. They will make you laugh, sigh, and look carefully over your shoulder each time you turn a Page!. |
