Description

In this delightful volume, eight of India's most loved folktales are retold in all their humor and warmth. Borrowed from three books of ancient Indian folktales-the Hitopadesha, the Panchtantra, and the Jatakas - these stories feature unforgettable characters, from an elephant and a dog who become unlikely companions to a talkative tortoise who can't keep his mouth closed to save his life.
