"Hitopadesha from the All Time Favourite series is a meticulous collection of short stories each imbibing a moral message which will prove to be of immense practical value throughout the lives of readers. It comprises stories which have both animals and humans as characters bringing out the essence of ethics that have survived years in the human civilisation. Even after the turn of centuries these humanistic values still hold fort.Most of the stories are identical to those of Panchtantra as Hitopadesha is largely based upon the same. in fact, the two classics share the same frame narrative.The book carries true to life pictures that make each story remarkably appealing. The highlighted words can be traced back to a list of difficult words provided at the end of the book, thus enhancing the vocabulary skills alongside."
