THE BLUE UMBRELLA

The media could not be loaded. I am reading fiction after almost ten years (I am a 27 years old female). All this while I was reading self-help books that contain more or less the same content so I got bored of them and during the pandemic I stopped reading books altogether. I tried reading some books on the phone but would easily get distracted and discontinue the book.I was getting desparate to get back into my reading habit so without giving it much thought I orderd this book. When I received it, I was shocked to see how thin it was. I could finish it within an hour or two, I thought. But I ended up reading just one chapter a day over the course of a week whilst thoroughly enjoying the art illustrations and absorbing all the information at a slow pace.I feel, it has somewhat healed my inner child. The story is very simple with a moral that I'm sure kids would benefit greatly from. As an adult, I could foresee how it would end yet had a child-like excitement to read the next chapter. I guess I was missing this kind of genuine excitement for reading books, so I'm grateful for this book to help me get out of the reader's slump.Ever since I finished this book, I have gotten more such books that are primarily meant for childre as I'm enjoying their simplistic narration and subtle lessons.

I just finished this book and man what an amazing story I just read, the story shows Jealousy, Love, Loyalty, Class Distinction, Value of something, Kindness everything in a simple story named "The Blue Umbrella" we see how valuable it could be which is not too valuable to us, it shows kindness, It shows sacrificing love for someone, it shows how a Bad character can also be good by Love & Giving him another chance.Conclusion:If you are starting reading books or need some short story to read and refresh the mood and mind or thinking to buy this for your child or for yourself, Definitely Go For It, it's easy to understand, no hard English words, You can read it completely in a sitting and it will not bore you ❤️Lastly, I want to Thank the Author for Writting this wonderful story ❤️, Perfect Masterpiece 💗

The Blue Umbrella by Ruskin Bond is a heartwarming story set in a small village in India. It follows Binya, a young girl who trades her lucky leopard-claw pendant for a beautiful blue umbrella. The umbrella becomes her prized possession, and the villagers admire and envy it.Ram Bharosa, an old shopkeeper, grows jealous of Binya's umbrella and desperately wants it for himself. He tries to acquire it through dishonest means, leading to a series of events that teach both him and Binya valuable lessons about kindness, generosity, and forgiveness.The story highlights themes of greed, innocence, and the power of compassion. In the end, Binya shows maturity by giving Ram Bharosa the umbrella, and he, in turn, realizes his mistake. The book is a simple yet profound tale about human nature and morality.

The language is very lucid. Obviously, it is a fictional novella, so don’t expect much knowledge. It provides an immense description of emotions, with each character being a unique herb in the brew. The story has a very sharp beginning, flows well in the middle, and ends with a stereotypical happy conclusion. It can be completed in 1-2 hours.

A good choice of read, especially for kids
