The Credit Waster book
Good but the length is too short.. Only contains one story.. Before buying pls check the tone of the story and then go ahead if you want.. It's a waste of one hard earned credit point..

Beautiful children story
Not so much for adults. But gives a great taste of Sudha ji's artistry. I'll suggest her other books to my nephew and niece.

Felt Cheated paying Rs 140 for a 11 minute audio
Felt Cheated paying Rs 140 for an 11-minute audiobook.
Thought like all Sudha Murty books, this will also be consuming.
Sat to listen in leisure. When it started and when it ended was a surprise. I thought, I have not been able to download fully. Again downloaded but in vain.
Really disappointed.
