A Treasure of Tales For Class 5

About the book

Everybody loves a story, Children, in particular, find stories fascinating and this set of six books in multicolour is a collection that would satisfy any child.
These stories are drawn from different sources, some from our Panchtantra, others from Aesop’s Fables which are of Greek origin and yet others from the work of the celebrated Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen. Tales from foreign countries like Afghanistan, Persia, England and Ukraine also find a place here. The bulk of the stories are, however dawn from the folklore of the different states of India. Thus, this selection represents not only our own country but also many others across the globe.
Historical tales have been included to give due honour to heroes and heroines of past like Chhatrapati Shivaji and Jhansi Ki Rani. Wise and witty ministers like Birbal and Court Jesters like Gopal Bhand and Tenali Ram have not been forgotten either. These stories will amuse and entertain the child and hold his interest, while stimulating his mind and introducing him to good. Sound human values.

Graded for the language and thought content, these books will promote a genuine love for reading and, at the same time, improve the child’s command over the English language.
