Tales Between Tastes by Karan Puri

 Tales Between Tastes by Karan Puri | Book Review


"Tales Between Tastes" by Karan Puri is a lovely and inventive collection of stories that combine daily magic, kid mischief, and food. Whether it's Ranjit's analytical thoughts in "Samir and Imambara" or young Bidesia's affection for his mother's chutney in "The Chutney Song," every story has its own distinct flavour. The author skilfully transforms everyday meals and family time into amazing experiences by utilising metaphors, dos and don'ts, and clever insights.

The tales have been used to celebrate the bravery, inventiveness, and innocence of mischievous children who plot mango adventures to chapati that spread rumours throughout villages. Ghosts bring mischief, chutneys sing across the oceans, and elephants form close friendships.

Puri combines elegance with cuisine, pleasure, and friendship while also sprinkling some courage and kindness lessons. The readers are made to laugh, think, and dream by the simple yet colourful language.

The author has infused the wonders of childhood and Indian customs into fictitious stories based on common occurrences. The language is easy enough for beginners to understand. The book's title is curious, and the cover page is striking.

All things considered, this is a fantastic book for children and readers of this genre.
