Nami and Jhalak: Stinkypur Guardians

posted on March 7, 2026

The last book we will be reading at the next edition of my book club isĀ Nami and Jhalak: Stinkypur Guardians! It’s just a few months old, and I can’t wait to share it with my book clubbers. Here’s what we’ll do as we read.

Bird Quiz

Nami and Jhalak get inspired to act when they find a lapwing stuck to a bucket of paint in the canal. Do you know what a lapwing is? What regular birds can you identify? Let’s find out!

Write a Poem!

When we provide children with the right scaffolding, they write much better! Together, we’ll work on a poem inspired by nature.

Picture Postcards

Nami and Jhalak send picture postcards to convince the authorities to save Town Park. I’ll introduce my book clubbers to picture postcards and then we’ll make our own!

Join a programme!

I’m always nervous about reading my own books with my book clubbers, but over time, we’ve read quite a few! Take a look at what we did as we read:

  • The Clockwala’s Clues
  • The Prophecy of Rasphora
  • Dhara’s Revolution
  • Dragonflies, Jigsaws and Seashells
  • The Best Idea of All
  • The Wall Friends Club
