Cherry Tree: A Short Story in the Popular Puffin Chapter-Book Series for Children by Sahitya Akademi Winning Author (1992) Ruskin Bond, illustrated bedtime tale - Softcover
Synopsis
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!
