Description:

When a pigeon drops a tiny seed, it takes root and slowly grows into a magnificent fig tree named Ganga. With everyone's love and care, she flourishes — offering cool shade, sweet fruit, a place to nest and a spot to play for the birds, animals and children who gather around her. But as Ganga grows tall and admired, pride begins to creep into her heart. Vain and arrogant, she turns her friends away one by one, certain she is better off alone — only to find that isolation brings her no joy at all. It is then that Ganga learns life's greatest lesson: the quiet happiness that comes from humility and from giving without expecting anything in return. Written by celebrated chef Vikas Khanna and brightly illustrated, this gentle Indian fable about nature, friendship and forgiveness carries a warm message for young readers
