The Tree with Eyes: Himalayan Stories of Ecological Horror

The Tree with Eyes: Himalayan Stories of Ecological Horror

This news is about a new book called 'The Tree with Eyes and Other Stories.'

It was written by an author named Bela Negi, who lives in a town in the mountains of India.

The book has nine short stories set in the Himalayas, a big mountain range in Asia.

The stories are a little scary, like horror stories, but they are about something real.

They show how people are hurting the mountains by cutting down trees, digging mines, and building too many tourist places.

Some stories are about village people and their everyday lives, like a mother protecting her baby.

One story is about a man who gets hurt working in a quarry.

Another story is about a young man whose family once owned an orchard.

The book wants us to remember that nature can fight back when it is destroyed.

It is a warning that we should take better care of the mountains.
