The Prisoner of Bhopal
Author: Tim Walker
Format: Paperback
Recommended for ages 10+
Amil has always dreamed of working at the gleaming pesticide plant in his home city of Bhopal. Instead, on his tenth birthday, he is taken from his family to labour for the cruel Mr Kumar and his son in a run-down printing factory.
Hidden in a trunk he discovers a First World War journal kept by his great-grandfather, and learns the two of them share a rare gift: the ability to read the wind. Its meaning stays hidden until the terrible night the plant releases poison gas over the city.
