Book Review on "Great Indian Children's stories by Stephen Alter"

 

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.
