description: Yet another set of short stories, 13 in all, based on a variety of topics, having historical background and entertaining in a marvelous way. Each reflecting a human nature, unique in its own way. None fails to share a secret of human nature. The first story is woven around the famous historical personality Shivaji Maharaj. The main character is a small school boy studying in class four. The topic here is the discussion between his father and his teacher as to whether Maharaj was literate or not? Being very young little Moreshwar unintentionally changes a few words spoken to him by either his teacher or his father while passing their messages to each other. Poor Moreshwar gets beaten every time working as a messenger. Da Ma has a rare quality of bringing humour in activities of our day to day life.
