The stories in this book are extremely universal in their messages. There are a few references throughout that require some background in Indian culture to recognize, but nothing that will take away from the meaning of the stories if you do not understand them. The variety is fantastic--some stories are hilarious, some inspiring, some heart-wrenching. Any age can enjoy and appreciate them as well! They are best read only a few at a time to truly learn the teachings. Some of the morals taught are very blatant while some are very subtle, so you will lose much of the wisdom if you do not give each story the contemplation they deserve.

I can’t keep myself from re-reading it. I respect the wonderful person she is, and I love reading about her experiences. You’ll not only enjoy reading it, you will also learn a lot of things in the process. She made use of frugal words and I absolutely enjoyed reading it!
