“Book Descriptions: India is a land of stories, rich in legends, parables and myths. Chandamama has enriched many generations of young minds with these stories. Saraswati Samman and Sahitya Akademi award winner Manoj Das is one of their finest contributors and Popular Prakashan is proud to co-publish a series of some of his best stories. The spiritual subtext and moral lessons in these delightful stories will, we hope, continue to fascinate and mould young Indian minds. The illustrations are by renowned artist Sisir Datta.
The Fourth Friend is a story that is set in a small village, which gets marooned in flood & temporarily gets transformed into an island. In this backdrop, a group of three boys find a strange friend, a tiger who has got separated from a touring circus. It is at once realistic, yet hilarious, human & full of suspense.” DRIVE
