Barefoot in the wild is a collection of stories about endangered wildlife written in poetic form. Colorful illustrations and short descriptions about the animals make it a delightful read for both children and adults. Walk barefoot in the wild with the poet and unravel the black panther's mystery, fly over the steppe eagle's empire, fall in love with the Narcondom hornbill's island, measure a creeper's reach, swim with the Ganga dolphin, look a king cobra in the eye, help a city butterfly find a flower . . .
