    About this ebook

    A compilation of four stories giving a human touch to animals children are familiar with. The Blue Cap is a humourous story about the antics of animals, while the Jumbo Ride is about the innocence of very young animals and their reaction to the adult world. The Hide and Seek story treats everyday garden animals as playing games like kids would do. True Colours , while entertaining with its storyline, also encourages children to be themselves and not try to be someone else.

    Author

    Sugantha Nandakumar

    She was a teacher in schools and realised that the story form of teaching is of immense use in teaching children. Later as a grandmother, her story-telling skills endeared her to her grandchildren. Thus the idea of putting stories in visual form to entertain and educate young children came in, hence this book.
