Indian author Ruskin Bond’s short stories have been charming generations for children for over six decades now, and the mature readers haven’t remained unglues either. Three such literary gems by the country’s 3rd-highest civilian awardee- Goodbye, Miss Mackenzie Romi and the Wildfire; and The Kitemaker-have been carefully encased in the book Magical Stories for Children. Told from the quaint hills and valleys and Old Delhi of pre-Independence India, the inside illustrations are sure to provide the reader with an impactful vision of the setting and characters.
