Summary/Abstract Mati pesters her grandmother and father for her own plot of land in the big field. When she does get it, she works hard.

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.
