One hundred and fifty-one short stories fill this bedtime collection, each sized for a single sitting before sleep.
Anthologies of this kind work by keeping every piece brief, so an adult can read one story and stop without an argument about the next chapter. The mix draws on folk tales, fables and simple moral stories, the sort of material that has been read to children for generations and still holds up. Manoj Publications issues it as an 80-page paperback suggested for children of about five to eight, an age when listening usually comes before independent reading.
How the collection works:
• 151 short stories arranged for one-a-night reading
• Folk tales, fables and simple moral stories throughout
• 80 pages in a Manoj Publications paperback
• Suggested for children of roughly five to eight years
Parents and grandparents reading aloud at bedtime will find this Manoj Publications title at Boipoka.
