معلومات عن هذا الكتاب الإلكتروني
Rohan and his mother are holidaying in the Kumaon Hills. Rohan should be studying his maths because he failed in his exams, but he is spending a lot of time reading Jim Corbetts Maneaters of Kumaon and wandering the hills with a village girl called Manjul who goes to herd her cows every day. The two become friends because Rohan admires the way she can jump streams like a little cat and her knowledge of the woods. Into their lives comes a tiger who is apparently killing cattle in the nearing villages. And then there is a mysterious man with a moustache who materializes at night and seems to be able to talk to both children and tigers. Rohan is convinced that he is Jim Corbetts ghost. Manjul is unconvinced. Whoever the mysterious man is, his task is to save the tiger from poachers and herd it back into the National Park. The result is a story of mystery and magic.
