Ruskin Bond Ranji the Music Maker

Looking for something a child will actually pick up again? Ruskin Bond Ranji the Music Maker by Ruskin Bond is a paperback made for young readers aged 8 - 10 years. Runs to about 40 pages, so it's the kind of book that works for bedtime reading or a quiet afternoon.

What it's about

In the middle of his languid holiday, idle young Ranji stumbles upon assorted musical instruments in the storeroom-first a shrill flute, then a blaring little trumpet and, finally, a too-big drum that may have once sounded a battle march. He stages impromptu concerts down the road, not sparing his neighbors, nor the cats around his porch, nor the peace-loving inhabitants of the zoo! But all Ranji's really seeking is a friend who'll hear the magic in his din. A lyrical and stunningly illustrated offering from India's favorite teller of tales, this is a sunny story about forging bonds and the simple joys of life.
