10 Living Lands of India 

Colour, Learn, Imagine

Created by Kaniz Fatima Khan

10 Living Lands of India is an illustrated journey through some of India’s most extraordinary ecosystems — from the cold deserts of Ladakh and the forests of Central India to coral reefs, grasslands, wetlands, mountains, rainforests, rivers, and salt deserts.

Blending nature and ecology, storytelling, observation and colouring, the book invites readers to slow down and explore the hidden relationships between landscapes, wildlife, climate, water, and people. Along the way, readers encounter migratory birds, alpine flowers, desert foxes, coral reefs, ancient forests, and Indian ecosystems shaped over millions of years.

Created for curious readers of all ages, this book encourages children and adults alike to look more carefully at the living world around them — and to understand that every ecosystem, no matter how silent or distant it may seem, is deeply alive and connected.
