How I Taught My Grandmother to Read: And Other Stories

What do you do when your grandmother asks you to teach her the alphabet? Or the President of India takes you on a train ride with him? Or your teacher gives you more marks than you deserve? These are just some of the questions you will find answered in this delightful collection of stories recounting real-life incidents from the life of Sudha Murty teacher, social worker, and bestselling writer.

There is an engaging story about one of her students who frequently played truant from school. The account of how her mother's advice to save money came in handy when she wanted to help her husband start a software company and the heartwarming tale of the promise she made and fulfilled to her grandfather, to ensure that her little village library would always be well supplied with books. Funny, spirited, and inspiring, each of these stories teaches a valuable lesson about the importance of doing what you believe is right and having the courage to realize your dreams.

Ball is heavy due to solid construction
Size: Large
Just received the large ball. Construction appears to be excellent and time will tell with my aggressive chewer. That being said I ordered the large because our Mini Goldendoodle loves playing with our daughter’s dog large ball. I may not have read description close enough but ball is solid and weighs a considerable amount. Our dog soon learned to pick it up but I’m just disappointed that it isn’t hollow like ones our daughter has.

Best dog toy for extremely aggressive chewers!!!
Size: Large
Absolutely a great dog toy for extremely aggressive chewers! I have a pig pitbull that loves to chew! He has chewed through every toy I have ever bought pretty much right after I give it to him. This thing is durable he hasn’t made a hole or a tear in it yet and he hasn’t made went to town on it when I first gave it to him! I’m impressed!

Kong Works Well...
Size: Medium
Our German shepherd chews every ball we've ever purchased. The other balls are easier to throw for this 75yr old lady. But this Kong ball will out live any other ball I've ever gotten him. A tennis ball doesn't last an hour. Some other name brands takes him a full day to chew up. So far he's tried but gets nowhere with his new Kong. I seriously believe he just might not be able to chew this one up. Thanks Kong. I got the medium and it's a large ball.
