The Boy with the Moon on his Forehead and Other Folk-tales

The Boy with the Moon on his Forehead and other Folk-Tales is a collection of stories by Lal Behari Dey. Lal Behari Dey presents the stories of his youth in Bengal, stories of kings and queens, gods and monsters, of rich and poor and everything in between.

Charming, instructive, and often surprising, The Boy with the Moon on his Forehead and other Folk-Tales is an underappreciated masterpiece of Bengali literature from Lal Behari Dey.
