reminiscent

I had the cassette and read along book as a child and loved it , I'm so stoked to have this audio now, it's almost impossible to get hold of the older media now, but this , it sparks joy in me, Girish Karnad introduced me into the world of storytelling with which I'm still fascinated.

Thank you Amazon for hosting this.

Short an sweet

The audiobook is really nice, its so apt for kids too. At this era where we miss the essence of our culture such audiobooks will help the growing generations to know our culture and take it forward. Such small acts and efforts should be greatly appreciated.
The songs could have been in regional language like in Hindi than in English would have been a cherry on top.
