Puloma must summon immense courage to rescue a captive bear in this gripping adventure from award-winning author Jasbinder Bilan.


Can Puloma save Nyla the bear and herself at the same time?

Unwanted and lonely living with her unkind aunt, Puloma ends up running away with the circus. She’s relieved to find work and a place to live but can’t understand why the other circus workers are constantly worried about the police finding them.

The reason for their fears is the circus’s star act – a dancing sloth bear called Nyla. This form of cruelty is now illegal in India, and when Puloma sees Nyla being mistreated, she decides to try to help her escape …

Particularly suitable for readers aged 9+ with a reading age of 8.
