Borderless tales: Impacting Young Minds
India is a country with a diverse traditional folklore that transcends state boundaries and entertains the young. Stories in oral traditions and folktales have crossed both language and cultural barriers to engage with young Indians. The migration of each tale has seen a modification and an adaptation that has retained the relevance of these timeless tales.
