Jainism is the culture of nonharmfulness towards all living beings. The Jaina Tirthankaras and Jaina Munis have given the world the gift of Ahimsa (non violence), Aparigraha (non-possessiveness) and Anekantavada (the manysidedness of reality). In Jainism, we find respect and reverence for all forms of life. In this unusual collection of Jain stories - traditional stories from the Jaina Heritage are retold in an interesting format for children. The stories are narrated by Nani (the wise grandmother) to her two attentive grandchildren Natasha and Moni. 17 stories make up this collection which offers the Jaina storytelling heritage to the next generation.
