Folktales from Tamil Nadu

Ours is a land where stories live in every home and every winding village lane-stories told by grandmothers, sung by wandering performers and passed down through generations.
In Folktales from Tamil Nadu, Narayan Devanathan gathers some of the most delightful tales that continue to entertain children in this southern state of India. We read of a sparrow's endless appetite, a peppercorn's magical adventure, forgetful flies searching for their lost names, clever tricksters turning misfortune into triumph and tiny creatures outwitting kings, gods and giants. These are stories where the ordinary becomes extraordinary and wisdom hides in humour and surprise.
A richly coloured and illustrated addition to the Red Panda series of folktales from across India.
