    Satisfying!

    Ruskin fills it near the brim, let it not spill, adore it then with a mint, let it float and dance with the tide,
    none jumps off the seat, but, reading these innocent plethora of tales reader is left satisfied!

    Don't think twice,buy it :D

    For all you Ruskin Bond lovers,this is an absolute treat and you need no reason whatsoever to order it. It's always nice to own a copy of your favourite author's best works,to read as and when you wish.
    For young,the middle aged,and the old,you can never have enough of Ruskin Bond. And add to that a discount of Rs.200...its reason enough to buy it.
    The only problem is a few misspelt words like "Ali'' becomes 'Ili' and 'sometime' becomes 'somet ime' in a few places,but that's nothing to worry ...
