Book Description

As lightning and thunder tore the sky apart, Ammini knelt. She had decided to pray. As she started, she heard screaming. Ammini’s serene life in the valleys of Wayanad is disrupted by the oncoming of a sudden seething storm. The profitable vanilla and pepper plantations, that had replaced the beautiful local paddy and coffee, are washed away in muddy deluge and destruction. Could the immense personal and natural loss have been avoided? Will Ammini be able to rise above past mistakes and hail a more sustainable future? Read Vishaka George’s keen inspection of the climate crisis in Ammini Against the Storm through the lens of farming life in Kerala. Age group 10-15, created in partnership with People's Archive of Rural India.
