My First Book of Hindi Words introduces the Hindi language to
preschool children in a gentle, playful way using the familiar ABC
English Alphabet. The ABC structure provides a framework that
encourages fun and natural learning. The everyday Hindi works
presented in this book include many that have particular
significance in Indian culture. The vivid illustrations give kids a
glimpse of Indian life and to show how, despite cultural
differences, kids the world over have a lot in common. Linguistic
and cultural notes are added to enhance the kids' adventure in a
land that's modern yet filled with beautiful traditions. And kids
will love the wonderful Hindi family who will take them from page
to colorful page.
The Foolish Men of Agra Drawn from the traditional tales of Mogul
India and skillfully retold by Rina Singh, "The Foolish Men Of
Agra" is a collection of ten delightfully funny and poignant
stories. The Mogul emperor, Akbar, is enlightened by the tales of
his clever friend and minister, Birbal. Whether Birbal is
outsmarting his jealous enemies or saving Akbar from his own
foolishness, the stories are consistently amusing, but also convey
the loyalty and affection of the two friends. The stunning
illustrations by Farida Zaman draw inspiration from the mosaic
style of the grand mogul palaces, and perfectly capture the spirit
and charm of these enchanting tales. Zaman's ornate illustrations
convey the rich colors and culture of India through portraits of
characters, snippets of scenes, and decorative chapter openers and
closers. An informative introduction places all of the tales into
historical perspective, and a helpful glossary concludes the
collection, making it all the more accessible. (Folklore. ages
