Room in Your Heart: A Folktale from Bhutan
Read more

During the current COVID-19 surge we are shipping orders from Delhi once per week. Please allow 8-10 business days for delivery.

This delightful and insightful tale is told by one of Bhutan’s leading writers, Kunzang Choden.

“Neypo shong gna? Is there room for me?” a wandering monk asks the little old lady who lives on the hill. The question is repeated again and again as more and more visitors remove by. The kind lady welcomes them in, one by one. And the story ends with the teaching: “There will always be room in your home, as long as there is room in your heart.”

Along with Aunty Mouse, this charming picture book makes perfect bedtime reading for youngsters, and is beautifully illustrated with evocative watercolours of the Bhutanese landscapes and people by Pema Tshering.

This delightful folktale from Bhutan is retold by one of the country’s leading writers, Kunzang Choden. 
One day, a poor young orphan girl finds unexpected riches when she topples down a mousehole and is befriended by its charming occupant. But when a spoilt, rich brat tries to replicate the experience, her gifts are quite the opposite!

Along with Room in Your Heart, these charming picture books will make perfect bedtime reading for youngsters, and are beautifully illustrated with evocative watercolours of the Bhutanese landscapes and people by Pema Tshering.

Tales in Colour and Other Stories
Read more

These deceptively simple stories uncover both the complexity and irony of women’s lives in Bhutan today. They show how ordinary lives, choices and experiences are both remarkable and poignant. In I am a Small Person, a despised woman uses her femininity as a means to control a man, the young girl in I Won’t ask Mother suddenly feels empowered and confident when she makes a decision without consulting her mother.

All the stories take place in rural settings, to which creeping urbanisation brings gradual change, and tensions surface between the new and the old, or the traditional and the modern. For many rural women, being able to connect to the city and all its perceived power and glamour is a very real aspiration. This yearning is exemplified in Look at her Belly Button, where a young woman effortlessly slips out of the role of a farmer to become a ‘real Bhutanese’ urbanite.
