In some of the stickiest of situations, this writer has fallen back upon simple life lessons. And more often than not, a solution has appeared out of thin air. These solutions were realised through virtues picked up during her growing up years. For instance, how individuals who stick together don’t break in the face of adversities, how adapting to change is the key to survival and how friends should be chosen wisely — all of these life lessons could be found in the childhood treasure trove called Panchatantra.

Stories from the Anvar-i Suhaili, a collection published by Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya (CSMVS), takes us back to those days of effortless magic that inspired our younger selves to become better. Translated from a Persian adaptation of the Panchatantra, this book is quite a collectible. Designed with hand-drawn illustrations, the book’s soft matte feel and format makes it interactive for early readers.
