This book is a collection of around 50 short stories, basically related to the social work done by the author and small and interesting experiences she had in the process. The stories if read carefully give us an insight about our India, some aspects which we ourselves are not aware of. some of the stories give a very nice perspective of the rural life, the thoughts of the people etc. Along with being insightful many of these stories are also quiet interesting.
I would say this book is a good read for those who do not find time at a stretch to read as it is a collection of short stories.
A few faults in the book would be, a perception of self praise on the part of the author and also a few stories apear to be a form of promotion of her work. A few of the stories are quiet unbelievable, they seem to be from some school time literature book, dont know to what extent they are true. I would like to point out there are very few such stories and in all the book is a good read
