This book is a collection of short stories taken out from the life of Sudha Murthy, during her time as a social worker and also some from before that time. It embodies everything I love about the author. The writing style is simple, while at the same time very heart touching. Each story left me with a warm, cuddly feeling, and also a bit of disappointment with our world. I only hope that I'll be able to bring a fraction of the change that she has brought in the lives of so many people.

What a book !❤️ I absolutely loved reading it! This is my favourite book so far! I'm looking forward to read more of her words!

Three Thousand Stitches is one of my favourite books by Sudha Murthy.

Following are the synopsis of few of the stories included in this book :

➡ is a short story about how ppl judge you if you wear simple clothes and not some fancy ones.
.
➡ Sudha Murthy had a bet with her friend that she will see 365 movies in next one year (one movie a day). This bet itself sounds interesting but more than the bet I was fascinated by this women who we admire so much.
And many more.

If you find this interesting then do read the book. It's very small book. You will complete it in couple of hours. It is really good book to read as a light reading after reading some bulky mind grilling books.
