| Summary/Abstract |
A little girl gets separated from her mother at the train station. She cannot read, write or speak. She is lost and helpless. She sees a man singing in the distance. He seems to have a number of followers. They fondly call him “Bajrangi Bhaijaan”. She approaches him for help, but since she cannot speak, he cannot figure where she is from.
So he starts saying the names of cities, and asks her to raise her hand when he has the right answer. In the process he goes through several towns and cities of India, and some neighbouring countries. The book is beautifully illustrated and every town or city mentioned has some special information about it.
A visually delightful book with interesting geographical information.
