Kheer-er Putul, a fantasy novel, narrates the touching tale of a king, his two queens, a doll made of sweetmeats or kheer, and a witty, talking monkey! Magical gifts are bought with shipfuls of gold. A malevolent witch sells mouth-watering sweets laced with viper venom! A hungry goddess (along with her cats) gives in to sweet temptation. Children play in an enchanted realm, invisible to the plain eye. Will the monkey be able to save the day? Woven by the tender, bright imagination of a gifted storyteller and artist, and crafted with words carefully chosen—like the perfect casting of a spell—this story flies us on a magic carpet into an unforgettable experience of the kingdom of childhood. Originally written in Bengali by Abanindranath Tagore, Kheer-er Putul is a children’s classic.

Urbi Bhaduri

Urbi Bhaduri has been bewitched by the magic of words for as long as she can remember. She is grateful to stories for teaching her almost everything she knows of life today. After completing her Masters in English from Jadavpur University, she has been exploring her strengths in different capacities—as a writer, editor and translator freelancing with publishing houses, newspapers and other organisations, and as a facilitator in the developmental sector, holding experiential workshops on poetry, memoir, self-discovery, deep listening, gender and entrepreneurship with young people who inhabit the urban margins, mostly in the streets and slums of Kolkata. She moves home frequently, and has lived all over India with her husband, her four dogs and more recently, with a baby girl.
