Five Mystery Stories
In order to have a little fun reading some good children's literature, I tried to read a book Five Mystery Stories, a collection of five short novels written by Nilima Sinha, published by Children's Book Trust.
I have read a similar book by CBT earlier, which I had enjoyed. But Five Mystery Stories was a major disappointment, and instead of providing entertainment, the stories in this book just bored me a lot and I stopped reading it after the first two novels. The characters have no originality, the plot just looks like cooked up for the sake of it, the narration is pathetic, and overall I felt very disappointed with CBT's selection of publishing this book for children.
