The wheels on the bus go round and round! goes a popular children’s ditty. But what if the wheels stop turning? What if people stop breathing? Such are the questions that Suresh Ediga explored with his children when talking with them about such issues as the disaster in Bhopal, in which a pesticide factory exploded, leaking tons of toxic fumes, killing thousands instantly and poisoning the ground and water for decades. This makes the first story in his collection, You, Me & a Story.
