Grandfather's Tiger Tales - Anjana Basu - Bog

Description
Dadubhai loves to tell stories about tigers and forests. After all, he has roamed
around the forests of India for years. In Grandfather''s Tiger Tales, he relates some
hair-raising stories about tigers-both real ones and those from myths and
legends.
In one, a tiger decides to drop in as a guest during a cricket match, sending
both the cricketers and the audience into panic. In another story, while
a fearsome storm rages in the Sundarbans, a man and a tiger take refuge
together in a little hut. He also narrates the legend of Bon Bibi, the saviour of
the people of the Sundarbans and her battle with the fearsome tiger-adversary,
Dakshin Ray.
Riveting and entertaining, these tales bring alive the tiger''s majesty and
beauty, while also showing young readers the importance of learning to
respect animals in the wild.
