This is a nostalgic look at some of the tales and legends of India written by one who clearly has warm memories of time spent in the subcontinent. A charming collection decorated with the beautiful colour and black and white drawings of Harry G. Theaker. Many of the earliest children's books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Pook Press are working to republish these classic works in affordable, high quality, colour editions, using the original text and artwork so these works can delight another generation of children.
