Book Review

Get ready to leap into the wild with “Eye to I with My First Tiger” by Nirmal Kulkarni! This rollicking children’s adventure whisks young readers deep into the jungles of South India, where two curious pals, Nandu and Salu, embark on a thrilling mission: to catch a glimpse of a tiger! But hold your binoculars—so far, all they’ve spotted is a whole lot of animal poop! Talk about a messy situation! Just when Salu thinks their expedition might be more “yawn” than “roar,” the jungle stirs with excitement. Could it be that the majestic tiger is finally about to make a grand entrance?

Author Nirmal Kulkarni’s storytelling is like a magical jungle ride, full of surprises and giggles. He paints a picture so vivid you’ll feel the rustle of leaves and hear the distant roar (or is that just your stomach growling?). Nandu and Salu’s amusing run-ins with the jungle’s “natural treasures” (a.k.a. animal droppings) add a hilarious twist to their serious quest, reminding us that nature is full of unexpected moments—some stinky, some stunning!
