Description

Acclaimed South-Asian-Canadian storyteller Sharada Eswar retells four fun and fascinating folktales from across India. Whether she’s telling how the vain peacock came to have eyes on his tail or of a poor family suddenly blessed with abundance, of a powerful ghost that faces an unexpected challenge or the wisdom a monk gifts to a snake, Eswar’s tales are engaging and full of life. The book features a full translation in Tamil, and includes bright and playful illustrations. This collection, which includes a tale from Rajasthan, Tamilnadu, Bihar, and Bengal, is a wonderful way to celebrate an important element of our multicultural identity.
