Synopsis

In this rib-tickling anthology, Ruskin Bond brings together funny stories, humourous articles and comic verse. These hilarious encounters—from a lunatic who escapes the asylum to watch a cricket match to a goat that goes berserk in a posh drawing room—written by renowned humourists such as Stephen Leacock, Jerome K. Jerome, C.A. Kincaid and, of course, Ruskin Bond himself, are guaranteed to make you smile, chuckle, snort, giggle and laugh out loud!
