A poor little girl is rewarded with lovely gifts when she takes pity on a hungry bird and feeds it all the rice she has, but what happens when the girl's greedy, nosy neighbour hears the story and tries to get bigger and better gifts for herself? Why did the once sweet sea water turn salty? How did it happen that the learned teacher forgot all his lessons and had to be helped out by the school cook? And what did the king do so that the people of his kingdom did not come to know that he has horrible donkey ears hidden under his turban?
Sudha Murty's new, enchanting collection of stories bubbles over with fun. Delightful colour illustrations bring to life tales of magical creatures, princesses and kings, ordinary witty men and women in a book that will bring hours of joy to readers young and old.  aFiction  aAjanta Guhatakruta (ill.)  cLEN  2ddc  00102ddc40708FICaMAINbMAINcCHILDd2026-05-08eGiftedg250.00l6m2oCSF SUD/BIpE1102867q2026-10-01r2026-09-03 13:14:48s2026-09-03w2026-05-08yLEN  c198438d198438
