Ace Detective Captain Coconut, who proclaims he can solve any mystery large or small, is called in to investigate the case of the missing bananas. He soon finds himself on a slippery trail of peels and missing numbers. Anushka Ravishankar, India's best known writer of nonsense verse, is at her best in this absurd yet logical tale, which gently satirises the very form that it uses. British-Indian artist Priya Sundram's collage art serves as a perfect fit to Ravishankar's text: it brings together elements of popular Indian imagery, drawn from advertising, the movies, newspapers and interior decor, to create a delightful world that is at once hilarious and founded.
Anushka Ravishankar Dubbed 'India's Dr. Seuss', Anushka Ravishankar is one of India's most celebrated children's authors, and her witty and jubilant tales are internationally acclaimed and widely translated. Anushka has now authored over twenty books and travelled widely performing from her stories. In 2012, Anushka founded the Indian children's publishing house Duckbill in collaboration with Sayoni Basu and Westland Books. Priya Sundram Priya Sundram is a London based illustrator who graduated from the Royal College of Art. She is currently working on several forthcoming children's book with Tara Books, in her distinctive style of collage art. She has also been involved with a number of children's workshops including at the V&A's Museum of Childhood.
