| Summary: | Aditi and her friends are sent to Antarctica by the Island Sage to stop the magic tricks of a little hobgoblin. But once there, they see a bigger problem - global warming! <br> <br> Gobby, the naughty little hobgoblin, is practicing his magic and running amuck in Antarctica--turning the white snow black, giving stripes and spots to the penguins, and scrawling pink graffiti on the mountainsides. As Aditi and gang hasten to stop him, they find that the world is warming up dangerously, the snows are melting. Something must be done. But what?<br> <br> Can 'fun' sometimes be more harmful than we think?<br> What exactly does Global Warming do to the planet? <br> <br> Infused with magic realism, the Aditi Adventures series features Aditi and her Friends - an ant, a one-eyed monkey, an elephant and two dragons. Their adventures take them to different countries, even to outer space and cyberspace, and also raise questions about identity, character and friendship. |
