Full of wisdom and intelligence

Firstly he describes the stories in easy-to-comprehend language and then follows them up with the lesson we must endure.The book is a collection of 50 such legendary tales along with their corresponding practical lessons. For quite some time I've been reading to be entertained, but I started this book to learn. I soon discovered that learning is super entertaining.Truly being an amazing storyteller, Vilas chose exactly the right words and the right stories to design this beautiful narrative. His varied choice of tales is what amazes me the most; such childish stories and still retaining their relevance and charm even today.If you're ready to dive into the sea of wisdom hidden in our ancient folktales, you should definitely go ahead with this. Even if you're not into that genre, I still highly recommend it - entirely because of the knowledge it encapsulates. Order your copy now, Happy Reading!!

The cover of the book looks attractive and title goes very well with its contents. Another wonderful feature of this work is the unique message that the author tries to impart through the questions by end of every story.Overall for me it was quite an amazing read!

A feel good book.
Stories and childhood memories go hand in hand. I remember when I was a kid there was not a day when I haven't forced my mum to tell me a bedtime story. The sole reason of getting this book was that it contained a lot of stories. Yes this book is a collection of fifty short stories of wit & wisdom from ancient India.The book contains different stories all having some hidden life lesson and moral values like honesty, kindness, love etc. Each story ends with engaging questions which keeps the reader piqued throughout the book. All the stories are written in a very easy and simple language perfectly suitable for beginners. Another important factor about the book is that the stories aren't interrelated so you can read any story any day. I want to talk further about the book but then I'll be revealing the plot line which I don't want to. So I'll wrap it over here by giving it a 3.5 star.
