Animal Tales from India: Ten Stories from the Panchatantra

My daughter is mixed race and I got her this as a way to pay homage to her indian heritage and it is such a lovely way for younger children to get involved with their culture or even learn about different ones

I read this book for my little daughter and these stories are really good for little children. In the end of each story is a moral that teaches kids how to be good people!!!

This book deserves 10 stars, not just 5. There are two standout features. First, the illustrations are simply brilliant. As adults, me and my wife look forward to turning each page while reading to our kids. Second, the text smartly modernizes the text of the stories, while retaining their ancient charms and timeless wisdom. Should sell for twice the price listed.

Lovely stories

This book is a great introduction to the Panchatantra. The illustrations are beautiful. My only objection is that the author provided her own takeaway from the story at the end of each story. As a parent, I would rather have a discussion with my child about what they can learn from the story than have the story tell them what they should have learned. However, I still highly recommend the book, and I am very happy that I bought it.
