Somewhere . . . ' is a lullaby in prose, a delightful little tale about a child who pesters his sleepy aunt for a story, only to fall asleep himself before the end. Shefali is a little girl who is put out to work as a maid by her parents, who cannot afford to feed her. She starts to learn how to read and write, facing ridicule and gradually overcoming her inhibitions by coming to terms with her own inner creativity. In 'Their Friend the Smoke Person' a brother and sister befriend a mysterious stranger, a 'smoke person' who appears and disappears at will.
