Be it Jo and Laurie from Little Women or Mowgli and
Bagheera from The Jungle Book or Mini and Rahmat from Kabuliwala,
literature is peppered with memorable friendships that linger on in our minds,
long after we have closed the book.
Published by Speaking Tiger Books, Let’s Be Best Friends
Forever: Beautiful Stories of Friendship, is an assortment of 19 such
stories, curated from timeless classics as well as contemporary reads. What
makes this anthology unique is that it does not limit itself to just human
friendships — it explores friendships between animals and even inanimate objects,
too.
With an introduction by Jerry
Pinto, this book is an ideal way to introduce young readers to beloved
authors from around the world, like Rabindranath Tagore, Louisa May Alcott,
Ruskin Bond, Rudyard Kipling, and more. For adults, this could make for some
light reading, useful for unwinding after a long day.
