THE OWL DELIVERED THE GOOD NEWS ALL NIGHT LONG

From Jammu and Kashmir in the
North to the Andaman and Nicobar islands in the South, from Dadra and Nagar
havens and Daman and diu in the West to Arunachal Pradesh in the east, and
all the other states and Union territories of India in between, here are 108
fabulous folk tales, legends, and stories from more than fifty-seven
languages and dialects. You will delight in wondrous tales of heroes and
heroines, of ordinary men and women, of wicked mothers-in-law and foolish
sons-in-law, of love lost and won, of a tree who loved a girl, of seers and
wise men, of chudails, werewolves, and wizards, of a Potter girl and the
divine cow, of demoiselle cranes and humans transforming into elephants, of
how the Woodpecker got its Crest, and much, much more. Startlingly original,
brilliant, wise, and often funny, these stories will delight readers of all
ages.
