All the great teachers of mankind have often taught through stories. Sri Ramakrishna is no exception. In this book, which is beautifully illustrated, the readers are invited to enjoy a feast of simple and interesting stories told by the Master in his unique way. These will stimulate them morally and spiritually and make them seriously think over those timeless precepts. Though this book is specially meant for children, people of all ages will enjoy it.
If a piece of burning charcoal be placed on a man's head, see how he struggles to throw it off. Similar will be the struggle for freedom of those who really understand that they are slaves of nature.
-Swami Vivekananda
