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

A runaway billi. A busy city. One very wobbly jalebi cart!

When a speedy little billi races toward a rumbling bus and disappears into the crowd, Chiku runs to save her.

Through honking streets, past the wobbling jalebi cart and into a bustling train station, Chiku must keep the billi safe and help her find ghar.

Chiku and the Big City Rescue is a high-energy Hindi-English picture book for children ages 3 to 6.

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

Children join Chiku in calling out directions, speeds and safety words including gaadi, billi, ghar, ruko, jaldi, dheere, seedhe, baaye, daaye, dekho and chalo.

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.
