Once there lived a learned brahman named Vishnu Sharma.

This is a book rife with entertaining stories laced with timeless teachings and moral values, stories that are read not only in their country of origin but far and wide in the world today. Optimized for digital reading, this ebook offers a smooth, immersive experience on any device.

Person
Vishnu Sharma is believed to be the author of Panchatantra. Other than the fact that he was a scholar, appointed to the court of a king to educate his sons about life, there is no substantial information on him. People conjecture that he may have been a literary invention, only a character used to introduce the stories in the book.
