The Gifts of Wali Dad: A Tale of India and Pakistan
Description:
Though Wali Dad lives in a hut, he feels he needs nothing more than he has. So when he sees that the coins he has saved have filled a pot to the brim, he isn't sure what to do with the money. At last he buys a lovely gold bracelet and sends it as a gift to the Queen of Khaistan. But what will he do with the gorgeous silks that the Queen sends back? Why, send them to the King of Nekabad! And when the King sends back twelve fine horses, who should get them but the Queen of Khaistan? The gifts and the humor keep growing until it takes two heavenly visitors to set things right, in this charming folktale from the Punjab.
