Author:

Illustrated By: Ruskin Bond

Genre:

1 Credits

This is a beautifully illustrated edition that brings alive the magical charm of one of Ruskin Bond’s most unforgettable tales. Rakesh plants a cherry seedling in his garden and watches it grow. As seasons go by, the small tree survives heavy monsoon showers, a hungry goat that eats most of the leaves and a grass cutter who splits it into two with one sweep. At last, on his ninth birthday, Rakesh is rewarded with a miraculous sight – the first pink blossoms of his precious cherry tree!
