Dive into the enchanting realm of the Panchatantra, a world inhabited by scheming animals and shape-shifting beasts, a terrified princess and a fleeing thief. In this delightful collection of ancient Indian fables, you’ll meet an old crab who enlists the help of a greedy crane to escape a catastrophic collision of planets that threatens to destroy his home. Little does the crab know that the crafty bird has hatched a devious plan to keep its belly full. In a faraway kingdom, a lovelorn rakshasa visits a beautiful princess every night, leaving her trembling with fear. Soon, chaos unfolds, taking the baffled rakshasa on a wild chase through the land.

Charmingly retold by bestselling author Meena Arora Nayak and brought to life with delightful illustrations, these timeless tales, packed with pithy wit and wisdom, unexpected twists and turns, and invaluable lessons about bravery and quick thinking in the face of adversity, will surely entertain a new generation of readers.
