This one is extremely funny! You never know what sort of an impact violent stories will have on children.. try amar chitra katha! those are brilliant and some stories have no violence at all! I remember my first amar chitra katha so well! Gopal and the cowherd! try those. stories of virtuous kings and all that jazz! <em>Thanx! I shd start Amar Chitra Katha, but not till he starts reading by himself... I'm too lazy to read such a long story! :)</em> LMAO! This one is extremely funny!

They have bilingual books in all languages with english as well as vernaculars by themselves. Most of their books are very well written and beautifully illustrated and are everyday experiences for most people in India. Hope this helps. Hi there:
