Meet Charred the Bard:

Shiny black
is my coat
Flap-flap-flap—
in air I float
There are queens
and there are kings,
But I’m the one and only
Lord of the wings!

He soars across India’s amazing forests, introducing young explorers to the country’s wild and wacky animals. From lush jungles to sandy deserts, misty mountains to sparkling seas―Charred’s journey is packed with adventure.

Along the way, you’ll meet roaring tigers, grumpy hippos and gentle whale sharks. Watch out for snakes slithering by, and don’t forget to smile back at the grinning crocodiles!
Listen closely as Charred shares funny stories and fascinating facts about India’s incredible creatures. From the tiniest termites to the mightiest elephants, every animal has a tale to tell.

With him as your guide, India’s wildest citizens are just a page away.
So, grab your binoculars―it’s time to explore!
