Synopsis

Do you know the trick to remaining dry in the rain? Or how to turn brass into diamonds? Or simply divide five oranges equally among seven children? This treasury of tales from the Indian tradition offers tricks to solve all these problems and more. We meet a strange mouse-girl; a goof who mistakes gold coins for trash; a king that can't stop coughing; a mystery man who pulls the emperor's beard; a kingdom made up of wild animals; and many such strange and incredible characters.
These simple tales of wisdom show us how any problem-however bizarre or impossible-can be solved with some good old-fashioned common sense and gentle wit.
