Inhaltsangabe

'You're trespassing,' said Miss Mackenzie. 'Yes, miss.' 'And you ought to be in school at this hour.' 'Yes, miss.' 'Then what are you doing here?' 'Picking flowers, miss.' And he held up a bunch of ferns and wild flowers. In this collection, you will find some of Ruskin Bond's most-loved stories down the years-from the unlikely friendship between a boy and an old woman in 'The Prospect of Flowers' to the tussle between Binya and Ram Bharosa for a beautiful umbrella in 'The Blue Umbrella'; from the story of a lost love in 'Binya Passes By' to the bond between a boy and a cherry tree in 'The Cherry Tree'. These heart-warming stories will make you laugh and cry by turns.
