This is the book (except HP and TLOS) that really deserves a place on your bookshelf- and in your hearts. It reminded me of my true nation and its culture, now that I've been reading many American and British books. It is full of amazing stories, both fantasy and relatable. It creates suspicion and leaves you torn, when your mum calls you for dinner(┬┬﹏┬┬).

Loved it, and I'm proud to be an Indian! I know every Indian would love it!

Why publish a book of fairy tales with no illustrations
