Enchanting Stories from India and Abroad
by R.K. Madhukar
Description
Who doesn’t like to sit in a time machine and go back in time to a distant place, a different world, a world full of sea queens and golden dolls, bandits and monsters, snakes and tigers, cursing birds and talking crocodiles, dense forests and steep mountains, and sultans and maharajas?
Good Stories are known to be timeless and eternal. That is why, stories told thousands of years ago and thousands of miles away excite us and hold us spellbound, here and now. Tales from the bygone era transport the reader to another time, another world.
In this book, we bring to you an assortment of twelve beautifully illustrated and enchanting stories from the folklores and mythologies of diverse countries including Korea, China, Brazil, Iraq, Egypt, Kenya and Greece, besides India. These are absorbing and engaging stories – stories that arouse curiosity, catch attention and hold interest. No wonder that these stories have been passed on from generation to generation, by word of mouth.
How did the prince get out of the clutches of the robbers? Did the sick soldier’s wife succeed in bringing the tiger’s whisker? What happens to the monkey which goes for a shave? Will the princess get back the golden hair she loses due to a bird’s curse? Did God create men and women differently? Could the Greek prince slay the mighty bull faced monster?
