The treasures of this world brought to us by Anant (Uncle) Pai. From
mythology and fables to biographies, these series of comics are a must
read for any child. As the name states, these books have indeed given
comics and picture stories an eternal place in our hearts through the
quality of their content and easy language.
I remembering bothering my mother to buy me at least 30 of these comics. The rest I borrowed from lending libraries. A few of the books from this series of comics and folklore I remember reading are:
