'In that last year at Prep school in Shimla, there were four of uswho were close friends [...] We called ourselves the "Four Feathers", thefeathers signifying that we were companions in adventure, comrades-in-arms andknights of the round table.'

Schooldays play a major role in shaping who we are; our friends and teachers atschool are the family we personally handpick. Not only does school teach usorder, discipline and the importance of academic learning, it also gives us thepriceless gifts of friendship, teamwork and goodness. Many of us, at times, mayeven struggle to remember the most obvious details of our everyday routines, howeverwe, so fondly and effortlessly, hold onto our sometimes vivid, sometimes blurrymemories of school life.

Ruskin Bond's Adventuresat School presents mischievous adventurous as well as thrilling schoolexperiences we can all identify with and relish. Some of these stories aresprinkled with innocent dreams, comical instances and heart-warming companionships, while others contain the author's personalanecdotes as he recalls the carefree times of his own childhood. These talespush us towards appreciating our school days with a strong intensity, and makeus reminisce them with bittersweet yearning and ringing heartstrings.

Ruskin Bond is known for his signature simplistic and witty writing style. He is the author of several bestselling short stories, novellas, collections, essays and children’s books; and has contributed a number of poems and articles to various magazines and anthologies. At the age of twenty-three, he won the prestigious John Llewellyn Rhys Prize for his first novel, The Room on the Roof. He was also the recipient of the Padma Shri in 1999, Lifetime Achievement Award by the Delhi Government in 2012 and the Padma Bhushan in 2014.

Born in 1934, Ruskin Bond grew up in Jamnagar, Shimla, New Delhi and Dehradun. Apart from three years in the UK, he has spent all his life in India, and now lives in Landour, Mussoorie, with his adopted family.
