TOO MUCH TROUBLE

In this delightful collection, Ruskin Bond takes us to the charming hill-town of Dehra Dun, where the young narrator lives with his grandparents and a succession of troublesome guests, including a vain python, an affectionate monkey hell-bent on wreaking havoc and an ill-mannered ghost. Even more troublesome, to the narrator at least, are his aunt and uncle who come to visit. The animals of the house, however, are ready to liven things up by starring in hilarious escapades that these long-suffering relatives most unwillingly participate in.
