This collection of 21 stories would relate the readers with the undocumented myths and indigenous tales from numerous villages of West Bengal, India. This may be a preliminary attempt to conserve and restore the rich cultural heritage and way of storytelling. Although there are more, beyond these, which needs to draw the attention of academia in lieu of proper conservation. These stories started with animals, plants, human beings, environment, and ending with culture, behavior, faiths, believes and many more. The stories also endowed with symbolic paintings, composed and illustrated by author. At the end of narrated stories the major addresses and names of indigenous storytellers are mentioned with due respect. If the readers would enrich and enjoy learning, it would be the best reward for author.
