Pre-Orders Only. Book will be released on May 17th, 2026.
When the village river is stolen by a greedy chief, six-year-old Ajeet joins her grandfather's protest in the city to demand its return. What begins as one farmer's quiet stand swells into a movement a million voices strong. But will their voices be enough to save their fields, their food, and their future?
Told in rhyming verse, The Stolen River is a story about water rights, justice, and the extraordinary things that happen when ordinary people refuse to stay silent.
Inspired by the World's Largest Protest in human history, The Stolen River turns real events into a fictional story that reminds children they are never too young and never too small to speak up for what is right.
Featuring a Sikh grandfather and granddaughter against the vivid backdrop of rural Punjab, this book offers authentic representation and culturally rich illustration rarely seen in children's literature.
It is also a story with real environmental consequences beyond the page. Punjab, a land named after its water, is predicted to become a desert by 2039. For every copy purchased, one native tree is planted there to support urgent reforestation efforts.
