Stories that get kids excited to speak, remember and use Hindi.

Chiku has packed the perfect picnic with sweet aam, soft kela and cold doodh.

Then...

BUMP! ROLL! BOING!

Her little blue lunchbox bounces away!

Chiku and Mithu chase it through a berry bush, over Tinku Turtle's shell and straight toward the river. When the lunchbox becomes stuck between two rocks, the friends must work together to save their khaana.

Chiku and the Runaway Lunchbox is a high-energy Hindi-English picture book for children ages 3 to 6.

Core Hindi words are repeated through action, humor and shout-along moments, helping children understand them, remember them and start using them themselves.

Children join the adventure using food, movement and teamwork words including aam, kela, doodh, khaana, chalo, dekho, ruko, jaldi, dheere, sab milkar and kheencho.

Hindi is written in easy-to-read Roman letters. The book also includes Let's Play with Chiku!, an activity that practices the same words through movement and pretend play.

Created for Hindi beginners, bilingual families and heritage-language learners. The story is easy to follow in English, with Hindi woven naturally into the action.
