Nature’s new lessons 
Ashaz Siddiqi, 11, Kurla

Funny as it may sound, as a kid, my favourite Bollywood movie was the Tiger Shroff-starrer A Flying Jatt, where the protagonist Aman fights to save a tree. This book, a super short read illustrated by R Ashish Bagchi, for ages six to nine, reminded me of it. While the two are unrelated, they emphasise the importance of trees in our lives. This book is all about the ‘giving’ nature of trees and how they nonchalantly are a part of our daily lives.

Ashaz Siddiqi reads about how trees act as air purifiers. PICS/NASRIN MODAK SIDDIQI
