 BOOK REVIEW : THE BIRD WITH GOLDEN WINGS 



"The Bird With Golden Wings" is a collection of some fascinating and consequential stories authored by Sudha Murthy. She mainly write for age groups between six to thirteen but I didn't find it astonishing that thousands from the above age group are also fond of her writings. Her writings are easy to understand, engrossing, purposeful and full of positivity with life lessons. This book also has some pieces of wisdom present in the form of mindful stories which talk about relationships, trust, love, kindness, greed, compassion, hard work, honesty, envy, and more. If you are looking for some of this give it a chance.

"The Bird with Golden Wings" is a children’s book of enchanting tales. It has 21 short stories about magical creatures, Kings and ordinary men who sometimes make one laugh and at other times give a lesson on basic human values of being kind and good at heart.

Some of my best loved stories from this are the
following:-
1. How the Sea Became Salty
2. The Precious Rupee
3. The Banana Tree Princess
4. A Father's Wisdom
5. Divide and Eat

Here are some of my treasured lines from the book:- 

1. Even the simplest of meals can taste like a king's banquet when you are famished!
2. Life is nothing without a little bit of kindness.
3. The only thing in life that does not change is Truth. It does not change with time. It is not always easy to tell the truth, and the person telling it and the person hearing it should be courageous.
4. When you go to do business, it's best not to show how rich you already are.

All in all, each story is a fun read and leaves the reader with a message on wisdom and values in life.
