Set in Ruskin Bond’s beloved hills, this much-loved collection of classic children’s stories transports the reader to a quaint world peopled with an eclectic cast of characters-from Grandfather, whose peculiar affinity for pet pythons, more often than not, lands him in trouble; Miss Mackenzie of Mulberry Lodge, who strikes up an unusual friendship with a young boy; a troublesome Pret, who enjoys wreaking havoc upon the household he lives in; to Ruskin Bond himself, who has a strange encounter with a mysterious woman on a cold winter night.

Simple and heartwarming, Great Stories for Children will engage and delight all young readers.
