Jokhu and the Big Scare (English)

Author : Priyadarshini Gogoi
Illustrator : Debasmita Dasgupta

Jokhu is the biggest, scariest, championest jokhini in the bamboo grove. She sits in a tree and makes everyone who goes by, from babies to bullies, shriek with fear. But one day, she meets a little girl whom she simply cannot scare. What will Jokhu do now? If she can’t be scary, then what can she be?
Bold, dramatic pictures make the many demons from Assamese folklore come alive in this wildly funny story about unexpected friendships.
