A combined volume containing Amazing Folktales from South Asia, Fascinating Stories from India, Favourite Indian Folktales and Funny Folktales
India's rich tapestry is woven together by her stories-from the great epics and mythology, or from the ancient history of this rich land. But the stories of the people, passed down from generation to generation, are the most astounding.
This omnibus is a collection of twenty-five such folktales from different states, regions and cultures of the Indian subcontinent, giving readers a unique flavour of local daily life, customs, traditions, dressing and food habits.
With tales that make you laugh out loud and those that leave you with food for thought, this collection makes for a perfect balance of stories that entertain and instruct.
