Imagine you go to sleep one night, and find that the entire city has started running! Roads and bridges, schools and buildings, maps, books, doors, hinges have all cut loose and are having the time of their lives! In this famous poem, Rabindranath Tagore ignites a child’s imagination gently and hilariously as he describes what happens when the city of Kolkata starts to dance.
.
With beautiful illustrations by Adrija Ghosh that bring to life the city of Kolkata, this book of poetry will provide hours of joy to every child to read and imagine with.
