"The Jataka Tales chronicle the past lives of The Buddha. The Tales in this Volume 1, retold by Ellen C Babbit are particularly informative and inspiring for children of age 6 and above. Parents and children can enjoy discussing the stories. What is the moral? What do we learn from them?"
"The Jataka Tales which chronicle the past lives of The Buddha are the oldest stories in the world. This second volume of stories retold by Ellen C Babbit is much enjoyed by children as well as parents. The stories lead to discussions about the values that should be the foundation of every child."
"First published by Chillibreeze.com, this is a magical historical tale based on the short story of the same name broadcast on BBC Radio. It is a novella about four women in the harem of the King of Vijayanagar (present day Hampi) in the 16th century when this fabled city, touted as the 'best provided city in the world' by historians was at its zenith.
Meet Jehaan, the lovelorn gypsy who longs for her nomadic life; the courtesan Queen gifted to the teenaged King as teacher, who seeks to evade her inevitable end on the King's funeral pyre; the Vish Kanya or Poison Damsel, whose very breath is poisonous and Meherbanu, mentor to these women who dedicates herself to inculcating acceptance and wisdom in these women.

Review
Anita Saran’s short story, City of Victory, published by Chillibreeze.com, is one of the best crafted stories I’ve read in a long time. She has a knack of bringing the setting to the forefront without intrusion. To call this piece of work a short story is an understatement. I find it to be more of a novella.
City of Victory had its debut as a broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in 2004. So many of the images haunted me and remained in my mind long after I read the work. The photos that illustrate the book are as interesting as the characters. I’m delighted to say I found this ebook a wonderful experience.

"If you have ever wanted to relive the magic of your childhood, this story is for you, as it is for children. 'Neverland' is a sort of sequel to James Barrie's 'Peter Pan and Wendy'. Ten-year-old Anahita does not want to grow up and wants Sister Henrietta to regain her childhood ways. Can Peter Pan help them? This story was first published in my collection of short stories 'Dolphin Girl and Other Stories' by Har Anand, a publisher in New Delhi."
