Publisher's Notes
V&S Publishers has been in the forefront in publishing story books for children - under the imprint Gopu Books. Most books are educational, moral and value-based in nature. Nearly every book published under this imprint has been lapped up by parents and guardians on behalf of their children, both in English and Hindi versions. Since the dawn of time, parents have used stories with morals to teach children about the values of the family, about life, difference between right and wrong, good and bad. A story with a moral can help, more so contemporary ones with which children can relate conveniently. Unlike most prevalent books in the market that exist only for their entertainment value, this book Interesting Tales for Children offers to build strength of character and respect for others.
This book is a compilation of 50 one-page stories for children. Language used is elementary and simple. Each story comes with caricature based illustration in black & white - a presentation no other publisher has attempted before. Being different from the ordinary run of the mills type, the caricatures retain interest of young readers. The moral at the end of the story summaries precisely what the child is supposed to learn!
By reading stories, children will gather how characters deal with situations and work through issues, they gain experience without having to go through those conditions themselves. Their horizon is expanded that fits the ethos and mores of a traditional society like ours.
We would be glad to receive feedback from parents so that future publications retain the flavour of enlightened views that expand horizon of our young readers.

when worst gets over
O ne day Sohan was looking after his farm. Suddenly he saw a man come running on his horse and went far ahead in one direction. After some time a patrolling officer came following him with other fellow soldiers. He asked Sohan if he has seen some one running on a horse. Now Sohan knew the person he saw was none other than a thief because so many soldiers had come chasing him. He said, ‘yes I have seen a man. Before he could say further the patrolling officer asked him to come with them and guide them in which direction that man went. Sohan’s father had left him on the farms to look after it. He thought it was the work of this officer to get hold of that thief and his work was to look after his farm. So whatever he said to the officer was by gone. But now he has to be really clever. He thought if he leaves the farm his father would be angry with him thinking why did he leave his work. To divert his trouble he said to the officer, T have seen the horse has two big horns on its head and the thief had tied a rope around them in order to drag it, follow this track and you will get him. ’ To hear this bit now the officer understood that this boy has not seen a horse but he has seen a cow instead. The soldiers thought os Sohan as a foolish person. They went away in search of the thief.
This way Sohan using his intelligence, continued to work on his farm. In the evening his father became very happy with his work.
It is said to act as a fool saves a person from a lot of trouble.

Moral
To avoid any trouble sometimes it can be at fight to act as a foot.

gelling what One Deserves
R aju the grosser and Manggo the fruit seller had their shops right J∖mext to each other. One day Raju needed a balance and a weight separately. He asked Manggo, for some time I need your balance and weight. As soon as my work will get over I will return it to you.' Manggo gave his balace and weight to him, but after some time when he asked for it again, the Raju said, 'Brother! Forgive me I will not be able to return you your balance and weight. It is eaten by rats.' To hear Raju's lame excuse Manggo was very angry. He suppressed his anger and said, 'if rats have eaten it then what one can do. It is not your fault' He said so and went inside his shop.
Next day he said to Raju, 'I am going to the city in order to buy a new balance. I also need a lot of other things to buy can you send your son for my help?' Raju agreed to send his son with him. When in evening when Manggo returned alone Raju asked 'where is my son?' Manggo replied, 'what should I say brother! A crane came flying and picked your son up.' To hear him say this Raju got enraged. And said with a lot of anger, 'how could a crane possibly pick such a big boy?' Manggo replied, 'in the same way as rats could munch down my balance and weight.'
To hear him say this Raju realised his fault. He returned Manggo's things back to him and said, 'please tell me now where is my son?' Manggo took him to his place. There his son was eating his meal comfortably. To see him fine and happy Raju thanked him and asked for forgiveness from Manggo.
Never try to cheat someone, more so the person who has come to help you at the time of need.
It is true that if you act as a cunning person someone with more cunningness will swindle you the way you do.

Moral
To treat cunning person with cunningness is the right act.

the Treasure
O nce upon a time there lived an old farmer. His name was Sukhiya. He had three sons. Sukhiya would often ask his sons to help him in farming but his sons were quiet lazy when it comes to work. They would listen what their father said with one ear and would take it out from another. They never wanted to work. See they wanted was eating and sleeping. Sukhiya was very worried about this habit of his sons. One day he told them, 7 have buried a treasure in the fields for you boys. So three of you must go and start digging the field to find out this hidden treasure.' The very next day his three sons got up early morning and hurriedly they reached his form on time. They went on digging entire day but could not lay their hands on the treasure. They told their father, 'we dug all day long but could not find the treasure anywhere in the field.'
Sukhiya replied after listening to them, ‘you three must dig a little harder, maybe then only you will get this treasure'. And the next day Sukhiya went to his field, scattered seed everywhere on the dug up field and asked his sons, 'you all must water this field every day, only then you can get hold of your treasure.' For the greed of getting treasure all three sons started following whatever their father told them to perform. Within no time the entire field turned green with a fresh new lively crop. To see the fresh new crop Sukhiya and his sons became very
