21 Short and Inspiring Stories: When the Heart Aches to Read Something Beautiful

Stories have travelled with us since time immemorial. This book beautifully captures the essence of storytelling by encapsulating the vulnerable moments of our lives and presents them in a way so we not only enjoy the experience of reading but also relish its aftertaste. Every story ends with a message and is a great read for both adults and children. Written as short fables, this book of 21 stories reinforces our belief in the simple truths of life and inspires us to embrace life and its challenges and forge ahead. Neither do these stories look at the world through rose-tinted glasses, nor do they paint an overly dark picture of reality, but provide us with a balanced perspective which will help each of us lead a more fulfilling and meaningful life. Inside the Book - What will the child eagle do after being abandoned high in the sky? What can a man do after being reduced to crutches - lose hope or keep fighting? Do you also feel regret upon meeting someone after a long time, guilt of not spending enough time together? Would you leave someone on the pavement, injured, if that person wasn't polite with you? After studying in a Hindi medium school for the first five years of life, how will a young child adjust to the rigours of an English medium now? Will Krishna, with all his shyness and dependency on his friend, finally be able to make a mark of his own.
