Walking Is a Way of Knowing: In a Kadar Forest | Madhuri Ramesh, Manish Chandi

2 posts | 1 read

The Kadars are a small indigenous community in south India. Even though they no longer live deep in the forest, they still walk its paths every day. For them, walking is a way of knowing, not just a way of getting from place to place. This is the story of a Kadar elder who takes a young urban visitor through the tangled woods that make up his ancient home. The book captures an urban nature lover's experience of learning from a forest-dweller -- and is beautifully illustrated to bring alive the dark richness of an lndian tropical forest.

Walking Is a Way of Knowing: In a Kadar Forest | Madhuri Ramesh, Manish Chandi

What do you find in the forest, in Kerala? If, like the local Kadar forest dwellers guiding the narrator, you know how to look, listen, smell and feel, you'll discover so many plants and animals! This lovely illustrated hardback is nominally marketed as a children's book, but adults will enjoy it too!

AppuNthebooks Thanks @Lindy! I got these from a local farm. Though called Apples these taste more like Pears but extra juicy. Perfect for Indian summers! 👌🏽 4y

Lindy @AppuNthebooks They are shaped like pears too. Interesting! 4y
