‘Every little stone that you see lying on the road or on the mountainside may be a little page in nature’s book . . .’

Sometimes, the world is the most wonderful story of all.

In Letters from a Father to His Daughter, Jawaharlal Nehru writes to his ten-year-old daughter, Indira, about everything around them: from the birth of the earth and the beginnings of life to the rise of civilizations and human societies.

Written nearly a century ago, these letters remain as engaging as ever, filled with curiosity, wonder
and a deep love for nature and humanity. They invite us to look at our surroundings differently—to see every stone, mountain and river as a page in nature’s book, waiting to be read and loved.
