In the land of Makkhipuri,
The fly was god for all.
They prayed to it for good health,
They called it Makkhilal.
What happens when a fly becomes the god of a village? Terrible things, you’d imagine. But one person in the village sees through the fly’s wicked ploy. Would she be able to save the village? Find out in this romp of a poem that will encourage young readers to think about hygiene, role models, the power of one and a lot more.
“Equating leaders to gods is … something [the author] … address[es] keeping in mind the socio-political environment … ” — Mid-Day
“ … encourage[s] young readers to think about hygiene, role models, the power of one and a lot more.” — Deccan Herald
