Abanindranath’s House of Stories – Likla & Eva

Description

A furious storm rips across Calcutta, bringing thunder and rain!
At #5 Jorasanko, the floorboards creak and the windows rattle.
The lightning turns shadows into monsters.

Young Abanindranath pulls his razai close and shivers.
What would you do if you grew up in a house bigger than the world?
How would you know if the house is a friend or a foe?
