Folktales from Tamil Nadu

By   Narayan Devanathan

Age Group: 9 - 12 Years

Description:

Tamil Nadu is a land where stories breathe in every home, temple courtyard, and winding village lane — whispered by grandmothers, sung by wandering voices, and carried lovingly from one generation to the next. In this vibrant collection, Narayan Devanathan gathers some of the region's most enduring and delightful tales, brimming with humour, magic, and quiet wisdom. Readers will meet forgetful flies hunting for their lost names, clever tricksters who spin misfortune into triumph, and tiny creatures who outwit kings, gods, and giants alike. From a sparrow with a bottomless appetite to a single peppercorn on a magical adventure, these are stories where the everyday turns extraordinary and wit hides wisdom in rhythm and surprise. Richly illustrated in full colour, it invites young and old to rediscover the warmth and wonder of Tamil storytelling.
