Indian author Ruskin Bond’s short stories have been charming generations of children for over six decades now, and the mature readers haven’t remained unglued either. Three such literary gems by the country’s 3rd-highest civilian awardee-The Zigzag Walk, The Wind on Haunted Hill, and Wild Fruit-have been carefully encased in the book Adventure Stories for Children. Aside from humour, horror, and present-past flights, the inside illustrations are sure to provide the reader with an impactful vision of the setting and characters.
