Meet Chirpee the hummingbird, Begei the brave squirrel, Browstie the wise owl, and many other lively, unforgettable creatures as they come alive in these twelve Babba's Little Tales. Nature is our first teacher, and when our children see the harmony between the animal and human kingdoms at an early stage, they learn compassion and humility. Minutely observing the animals and birds around her home, Neenu befriended some of them and wove many gentle stories around them.
