"Moving and inspiring animal story set in India."
Interest Age 9+ Reading Age 8
When newly orphaned Puloma runs away from her uncaring aunt she finds herself a job in a travelling circus. It’s there she meets another lone creature who needs to escape as much as Puloma did.
Nyla is a sloth bear, kept in a cage all day and forced to perform for crowds in the circus at night. The circus offers Puloma a home, a new family even, but she can’t stand to see Nyla suffering; what will she do?
Jasbinder Bilan puts readers in Puloma’s shoes: their hearts will go out to Nyla, they will be concerned for Puloma and her future, and they will get a real sense of her life and her home. At just 88pp, it’s a quick, accessible but moving and memorable read.
Puloma must summon immense courage to rescue a captive bear in this gripping adventure from award-winning author Jasbinder Bilan, set in the Indian countryside, brought to life by beautiful illustrations from Skylar White.
