Review:

"The Blue Umbrella" by Ruskin Bond is a charming and heartwarming tale that captures the innocence and magic of childhood in the Indian hills. The story revolves around a young girl named Binya and her beloved blue umbrella, which becomes the envy of the entire village. Ruskin Bond's simple yet evocative storytelling paints a vivid picture of rural life, and the significance of the blue umbrella goes beyond its material value. This book beautifully explores themes of friendship, jealousy, and the joy of small wonders.
