A Taste of Honey is an interesting story based on Indian folklore and has great illustrations.i thought it was a great, unique read.

A very good revision of the folk tale from the Indian subcontinent. Kamala is in need of more custom for her bees' honey, and so asks a favour of the king – only to get a bit of a white elephant in return. Still, she has the wits and nous to make sure things go her way, and not the way of a band of thieves hungry for gold. A strong narrative is equalled by the illustrative craft with its rich colouring, and this is worth more than four stars as a result. It even contains activities and story inspirations to make this even more full of use and value.

This book is fantastic and I would absolutely love to buy it for our collection at home! My only feedback is the teal font used for Kamala’s words is tough to read, especially against a yellow background. I loved this and my kids would too!
