Panchatantra Tales on StoryTruck Now!

Who doesn't love stories from Panchatantra? Children love them because the stories are short and cute while adults love them because there is moral in every story. While reading these stories you can't help but notice that these morals and lessons apply to our everyday lives. Ever wondered how these tales came into existence? Well, there are many variations on this story too but the most popular one says that a king in southern part of India was very disappointed with his three sons. The king thought that his sons were not smart enough and they would bring him dishonor. His ministers one day suggested that the king should send his sons to be trained by a well known scholar, Vishnu Sharma. The king soon summoned Vishnu Sharma and requested him to educate and train his three sons and turn them into great scholars. Vishnu Sharma took up the challenge and used the storytelling medium to educate and impart wisdom in his disciples. These stories are popularly called as Panchatantra today.
