Dr. Erach Bharucha is a doctor by day and eco–hero by night! He has been working to preserve India’s beautiful natural heritage for many decades now. He enjoys taking children to sanctuaries and other such areas to help them learn about nature, not just from books but also through observation and interaction with the environment. While much of India’s natural heritage has been destroyed, Dr. Bharucha is optimistic that children today will later in life be able to protect our forests, rivers and animals.
As children, Maya Ramaswamy and her sisters spent all their play–time with creepy crawlies. Their busy father had a deep respect for life, and taught them that wild creatures were also living beings. Maya grew up with a sense of wonder and love for India’s wilderness. She has illustrated several books on wildlife and conservation for children, and she hopes that children will make time to observe birds and to admire butterflies.
