Description
Amil's tenth birthday arrives with an unexpected twist. Instead of working at the modern pesticide plant he's always dreamed of joining, he's taken to work in his family's dilapidated printing factory. Hidden away in a trunk, Amil discovers a secret journal that belonged to his great-grandfather, Sanjiv. As he reads its pages, the wind whispers secrets that only he can hear. The journal reveals a shocking truth: Amil is there for more than just a job. He and his great-grandfather share a mysterious connection - they can read the wind. But when disaster strikes and the pesticide plant leaks poison gas into the air above Bhopal, their lives are forever changed. A portion of the book's proceeds will support the Bhopal Medical Appeal. This powerful story is based on the true events that unfolded in 1984.
