Every Dog has its TalePshango is a young, black Labrador suddenly abandoned by his human family. So from being a ‘protected’ pet, he is forced to fend for himself on the streets of Delhi, where gang-dogs and gang-humans roam and rule. How he meets up with the Pariah gang (of dogs) and comes to terms with all the changes in his new life are the main themes driving the plot, which is intertwined with a thread involving a set of thieves out to hold a rich man to ransom and the tributary tales of the inhabitants of Peepal Enclave, including an intrepid, lonely girl called Sabiha and a set of Rottweilers that go by the name, Lalaram Louts. Throw in a couple of happy elephants called Komal and Anarkali, an about-to-wed couple called Sleazy and Lovely, some dog catchers and a deadly mean mother-and-son duo who make Sabiha’s life a misery… these are some of the cast of characters, apart from a whole lot of canines named mostly for their personalities.

Bela Misses Her TrainRaina Telgemeier’s #1 New York Times bestselling, Eisner Award-winning companion to Smile!
Raina can’t wait to be a big sister. But once Amara is born, things aren’t quite how she expected them to be. Amara is cute, but she’s also a cranky, grouchy baby, and mostly prefers to play by herself. Their relationship doesn’t improve much over the years, but when a baby brother enters the picture and later, something doesn’t seem right between their parents, they realize they must figure out how to get along. They are sisters, after all.
Raina uses her signature humour and charm in both present-day narrative and perfectly placed flashbacks to tell the story of her relationship with her sister, which unfolds during the course of a road trip from their home in San Francisco to a family reunion in Colorado.
