Stories For The Mother & Child

Veena Bantwal

Genre: Fiction, Pages: 66, binding: paperback

It is a small, happy family Dadi, her son Rajesh, daughter-in-law Mona and little Rohan. Mona and Rajesh are a working couple and it is Dadi who takes care of Rohan once home from school listening to his chatter, answering his questions, telling him stories and patting him to sleep.

With Dadi’s sudden passing away, Mona and Rajesh fill in the void left behind by Dadi and at bed-time, spend time listening to Rohan and patiently answering his questions. Over time, Mona realises that the time and efforts they spent in bonding with their son can be seen in his good behaviour and she is a contented mother.
