The Blue Umbrella - Stories by Ruskin Bond

The Blue Umbrella - Stories by Ruskin Bond. When ten-year-old Binya becomes the proud owner of the most beautiful blue umbrella in the world, her happiness knows no bounds. From then on, the umbrella is her constant companion and protector. But there are others, in the village, who would also like the umbrella for their own and will go to great lengths to get it. Sita lives with her grandparents on a tiny island in the middle of a river. One day, when her grandparents are away the river begins to rise. The friendly stretch of water becomes an angry, rushing flood and Sita watches as her beloved home is washed away. Will she be able to save herself? This Amar Chitra Katha brings together The Blue Umbrella and Angry River, two wonderful stories from one of India’s most loved story-writers, Ruskin Bond.
