Grandfather's Tiger Tales

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.
