This is a warm collection of Kerala folktales for children, retold by Sreelata Menon from the Aithihyamala, a famous old book of Malayalam legends by Kottarathil Sankunni. The title story is about an elephant named Adikeshavan, and the other tales bring in more of Kerala's old legends. It works well for reading aloud together or for a child who likes to read alone, and it is a nice way to share Indian folk heritage at bedtime.
