Great
Indian Children’s stories edited by Stephen Alter is a collection of nine
heart-warming stories written by renowned authors. These stories are more about
love and affection that stirs the emotional factor of every reader.
Each story
has its own beauty in attracting the reader's attention. This book is not just
for children but also for young adults who can experience the joy of reading by
getting to know many stories compiled in one book.
What is
more important while reading a book? “The adventure that springs through our
heart while reading a book is one of the most wonderful escapades that all
readers render, in the book one can manifest the cognitive action and such
events are rare occurrences”.
Most of the
stories are from the twentieth century while stories like “The Kabuliwallah” by
Rabindranath Tagore and “Idgah” by Munshi Premchand are found to be renowned
classics of the eighteenth & nineteenth centuries. The stories in this one
book give us the satisfaction of reading nine books anthologized in one place.
It also stirs readers to explore the original works and relish them.
My
favourite stories were “The blue umbrella” by Ruskin Bond, “The Kabuliwallah”
by Rabindranath Tagore and “Idgah” by Munshi Premchand. In addition, I wish to
express my deep appreciation for the author for selecting such exclusive elite
stories. These will inspire children and young adults to cherish their
experience of reading this book.
My rating
is ⭐⭐⭐⭐ for this emotional experience.
