His experience as a child in India is pretty unique, Sadly, I don’t remember the story book I was talking about, but it’s tear-welling, about the forest of Dehra, the landscape at Mussorie as well as his parent and friend.

But if you do, I think you will find the story engaging, like a stage play.
