Book
Evaluation:
To start with the title, it does
instantly take you back to “Panchatantra” The cover design could have been
better. As a reader, I cannot really connect with the cover page. The language
used is easy to understand and steady flowing. The characters portrayed through
various stories have retained their uniqueness. The author has managed to grab
and hold readers attention throughout the story. The essence of the
plot is maintained till the end. All in all, it makes a great,
entertaining read. One of the books which will make your imagination fly with
a varied bunch of stories. Grab a copy to turn your boring days into
adventures.
