The Stranger and Other Curious Stories, as the name suggests, is a collection of stories about curious happenings. It contains fourteen short stories based on strange events. Some highlights of the book are stories by members of Association of Writers and Illustrators for Children (Indian section of IBBY) and art by well-known children's illustrator Taposhi Ghoshal The stories relate happenings that are unexpected and inexplicable, making a child wonder how and why those events must have happened. The enjoyment of the stories lies in the sense of wonder that they create. For instance, a boy falls into a ravine and discovers something unexpected, or a house comes alive in a strange way . . . The stories are based on ghosts and other worldly manifestations. The ghosts, however, are all friendly who seem to want to take care of children and people in trouble. There is no hint of malevolence or spite. In fact, one feels connected to people in history through their appearance as spirits in present times. The stories are thus a positive way of enjoying the imaginary world of spirits. It is well known that children these days read a lot of fantasy in which humans have to battle against other worldly forces. It is clear that there is a natural desire in them to imagine worlds that are different from the ordinary, everyday world in which they live. This need should be addressed through stories that stimulate the imagination in a positive way and not create worlds that are filled with violent and gory events. The stories in this collection recall the stories of Edgar Allen Poe, in that our everyday world is shown to contain many a curious tale. The fourteen stories in this collection have been written by well-known writers for children in India, such as Ramendra Kumar, Somya Dave, Nita Berry, Nilima Sinha, Dipavali Sen, Thangamani, Jaya Paramasivan, Devika Rangachari, Girija Rani Asthana, Ira Saxena, Neera Jain, Deepa Agarwal, Surekha Panandiker, and Swapna Dutta.
