Retold Stories
Format: 13 x 19.7 cm Pages: 56 + Cover Price: 95.00
Mali, or V. Madhavan Nair, was one of Kerala’s most prominent children’s
writers. Making his entry into this field a bit later than most, his unique style –
simple, funny, a bit out of the ordinary – cemented his short stories in Kerala’s
heritage. A master storyteller, Mali could capture children’s unwavering
imagination. It is he who introduced the Malayali children to the Indian epics
through his condensed retellings, Mali Ramayanam and Mali Bhagavatham. His
short stories and novels for children are still celebrated today. Mali is credited
with developing and encouraging the reading habit in generations of children.
The stories in this book are some of Mali’s best known ones – to read, to enjoy, to laugh and to ponder upon.

Retold by Prema Jayakumar
Perhaps Hindu mythology has not produced a hero more wronged than him, cursed from the moment he opened
his eyes till the moment he closed them. Karna is born out of the curiosity of a young girl and is abandoned at birth
by his father the sun god and his mother, Kunti, a princess. Being denied his lineage of divinity and royal blood, he is
brought up by a childless charioteer and his wife. Thus the man who should have been king is reduced to a victim of
taunts and ridicule, even from his own brothers.

The Story of My Experiments with Truth
ISBN 978-81-264-3647-7 | BW
Retold by Nandini Nayar
We know Mahatma Gandhi as the father of the nation, as the benign looking old man whose picture graces our
currency notes. But who was Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi and what made him the phenomenon he was? Born
into a middle class Gujarati family, Gandhi gave evidence of his thirst for the truth at an early age. Tirelessly striving
for the truth, Gandhi was usually harder on himself than on anyone else. His moral courage and implicit faith in
truth and above all his belief that love and non-violence were the perfect weapons to win any fight made him a
charismatic leader whose life and words continue to influence people today.

Rani Lakshmibai
ISBN 978-81-264-3392-6
Retold by Nandini Nayar
Rani Lakshmibai’s life has elements of the fairy tale in it. And yet, the young Rani is remembered today not so much
for her role as a queen, as the courage she displayed in taking on the British army, in order to claim her right to the
kingdom. Rani Lakshmibai is probably the most inspiring and enduring image of the Uprising of 1857 in the minds
of Indians, and has come to stand for courage and steely determination. Celebrated in books, songs and films, Rani
Lakshmibai’s life is an inspiration to women today, just as she was in her lifetime.

Whispers from Under the Bed
ISBN 978-81-264-5178-4 | Pages: 92 + Cover | Price: 125.00
Written by Anjana Vaswani
After lots of tossing and turning and turning and tossing one night, Anjana crept out of her bed, caught the monster
under it by his feet, dragged him out and sat him down (with a cup of hot chocolate, of course – she’s not a monster!)
to say, ‘Hey, you wouldn’t happen to know any bedtime stories, would you?’ Happily, it turned out, he did.
So, the obliging troll told her about the bad boys of Icelandic Christmas lore, about how a group of boys handled
a large scale problem, about magical dancing shoes that were one girl’s nightmare, about the terrifying task of
making friends at
a new school, about a little genius who was all too clever for his own good, about three little P.I.s (Paranormal
Investigators), and about a little author, confronted by her own ghosts, who finally recognised the importance of
happy endings.
Now, Anjana shares these stories with you in order to pay for that big dusty furball’s nightly cups of hot chocolate.

A Brave Girl
ISBN: 978-81-264-4089-4 Pages: 116 Price: Rs. 125
Written by Alice F. Jackson
A Brave Girl is in many ways a stereotypical novel of the 1857 Mutiny. Joan and Sara are the two main protagonists
of the tale. The two sisters live with their father in a bungalow in Mhow, surrounded by the usual retinue of native
servants, and a dog. Joan is tomboyish and is good with guns while Sara is the proper ‘housekeeper’, their mother
being dead some years now. Anticipating the Mutiny, their father calls upon Joan to retrain herself with the guns.
When the mutiny does arrive Joan and Sara are forced to flee the house in a carriage. This and their stay in the
English fort form the adventurous storyline.

Written by R. E. Forrest
Forrest’s Eight Days is the story of the eight days from the 8th to the 15th of May, 1857. Khizrabad becomes the scene
of English heroism and sacrifice, and native conspiracy and brutality. Apart from changing the names of the places
and characters, the novel stays close to historically recorded facts of the events at the Delhi palace of Bahadur Shah
Zafar, Meerut and other places.
with the incident that many historians identify as the cause of the Mutiny: the lascar mocked by the ‘lower-caste’
man for using cartridges smeared with pig and cow fat. Then comes the love story – that of the soldier Major Frank
Malcolm and Winifred Mayne, the niece of a soldier in Meerut. Major Malcolm’s ride from Meerut to Lucknow, then
to Delhi and back, aided by his faithful servant, Chumru is a lesson in history for the reader. Malcolm meets each
of the main English heroes of the turbulent years: Havelock, Neill, Henry Lawrence, Hodson, Wilson and Nicholson.
He also meets the principal Indian helming the affairs during this time: Nana Sahib, Roshanara Begum and Bahadur
Shah Zafar.
In the Heart of the Storm
ISBN: 978-81-264-4091-7 Pages: 480 Price: Rs. 395
Written by Maxwell Gray
In the Heart of the Storm uses the Indian Mutiny of 1857 as a prop to a larger theme of English class romances.
Philip Randal’s doubtful parentage and his problematic relations with his adopted sister Jessie and his odd rivalry
with his wealthy neighbour Claude Medway who also, incidentally, falls in love with Jessie, sets up the novel’s
prominent themes: parentage, lineage and social status. Medway, from a distinguished and wealthy family, does
not accrue social status from his class alone: he serves in the army. Philip, doomed to a life of poverty and uninspiring
employment also finds his status through military service. But the novel is primarily the story of Jessie, whose
upbringing has distanced her from her natural social position.
