We often view the daily happenings around us as ignorable; as things that aren't really worthy of being remembered, cherished or recorded. Little do we realize that these days make us who we are, becoming important milestones in our lives where we form eternal bonds, branch out of our comfort zones, experience our first heartbreaks, dream big as well as get struck by failures. It is these ordinary days that contain things, people and moments, that are perhaps, the most magical entities in our lives.

In Adventures in Reading, Ruskin Bond weaves together personal memories and his turbulent yet uplifting journey as a writer.
