Description:
In the lush, teeming jungles of Karnataka's Western Ghats, a small stray dog named Chitty finds her forever home on a forest farm — and proceeds to live life entirely on her own remarkable terms. She has breathless run-ins with wild creatures, dances after termites with abandon, develops a deep fondness for jackfruit chips, and spends long nights gazing quietly at the starry skies as though reaching for the edge of the universe. Over thirteen monsoons, she grows into a wise, loyal, and deeply soulful companion, weaving herself into the rhythms of the farm and into the heart of her human. Illustrated with extraordinary beauty by award-winning artist Rajiv Eipe, this moving and true-life memoir by Serow — shortlisted for the Parag Honour List — will make you laugh, wonder, and reach for a tissue. A love letter to dogs, to nature, and to the Western Ghats.
