This is a set of four colouring books
on the story of India’s independence. Balancing simple text with
detailed drawings that can be coloured, the books introduce children
to the thrill and excitement of India’s history. Older children
can read the stories themselves. Younger ones may want them read
aloud. The line drawings in each book are simple, arresting, curious
and appealing. Easy to colour in, they are based on authentic
references and provide a visual history of the times. freedom stories
