Weekly Roundup for the Week starting February 21, 2022
The week started off with a hilarious story of how a wily stranger with an unusually long moustache ended up reversing the nature of a perfect and boring village of Nekgaon. This was followed by a story set in Bombay of 1942 when the atmosphere was rife with Indian freedom struggle, a fun book to learn about unusual facts about various creatures, a story with a good mix of fantasy and reality to know about the role of trees and water in our lives and an inspirational biography of artist Henri Matisse who fought against all odds to create some of his best artworks when a serious illness confined him to a wheelchair.
