Seeonee: The Adventures of Underland

By Vipin Mishra

When 17-year-old city-dweller Alisha tumbles into the untamed expanse of Seeonee-a vast grassland encircled by towering oak, fir, and eucalyptus trees-she finds herself thrust into a world teeming with wonder and danger. Welcomed by the Ani-Manns, an eclectic crew of outcasts including 18-year-old human Aali, a lanky giraffe named Jaggu, a brilliant mouse scientist Dr. Ratnam, a sly tawny cat Caterina, a pompous rooster Mr. Kooka, a scatterbrained mynah Mina, and a shrewd old stork Hanssy, Alisha discovers allies eager to guide her back to her parents. Yet lurking in the shadows are the De-Manns, a sinister coalition led by the merciless tiger Shere Shah, flanked by the menacing python Anna and their scheming bat accomplice Dr. Battery-sworn foes of the Ani-Manns who threaten her every step through the jungle.As Alisha joins the Ani-Manns on a treacherous odyssey across Seeonee, they endure ferocious assaults from the De-Manns, igniting a fierce struggle for survival and supremacy that could determine the jungle's fate. When the dust settles from a climactic showdown, new perils emerge from Seeonee's heart, forcing the Ani-Manns to confront a dire ultimatum: submit to the jungle's looming ruin or broker an unprecedented alliance with humans to preserve its essence. Caught between two worlds, Alisha must decide if she can champion this fragile pact, becoming a bridge between humanity and the wild
