Born in 1934, Ruskin Bond grew up in Jamnagar, Shimla, New Delhi and Dehradun. Apart from three years in the UK, he has spent all his life in India and now lives in Landour, Mussoorie, with his adopted family.
A lifetime in the hills and a bountiful collection of stories throughout it?for over six decades Ruskin Bond has been charming readers with his stories from India?s hinterland. He has brought to the forefront of everybody?s imagination the mountains, valleys and rivers of Garhwal, as well as the magic of small, tucked-away places.
