The adventures of Emperor Akbar and his wise minister, Birbal, have captivated the imagination of readers for nearly a century. This brilliant new retelling of these stories introduces a new generation to the remarkable exploits of one of India�s greatest kings and his clever adviser. Step into the fascinating world of the Mughal court, and watch confused courtiers scramble to solve the riddle of a wise man�s mother language. Journey into dense forests miles away from Fatehpur Sikri with Akbar and Birbal and watch them escape from fearsome cannibals. Or join Prince Salim and his friend in a challenging game of chess. Extremely entertaining and full of eccentric characters, these tales will entertain young minds and teach them the importance of friendship, loyalty, and quick thinking.
