The Kahani (Hindi word for Story) Project aims to bring together storytellers from across the world who want to set stories free. We believe that listening to stories is a fundamental right of every child and captured in digital audio format stories can be made more accessible and available to children of all age groups, nationalities and disabilities. Our website (www.thekahaniproject.org) features audio stories recorded by volunteers who have a passion for storytelling and a little time on their hand. Anyone can contribute a story here and you can begin begin now. Sign-Up here - http://thekahaniproject.org/be-a-storyteller/ and we will walk you through the steps that will get you started with recording and uploading your digital audio stories.

For centuries the people of Holland have worked to keep the walls strong so that their country will be safe and dry. Even the little children know the dikes must be watched every moment, and that a hole no larger than your finger can be a very dangerous thing.

At the city zoo, the keepers, with tears in their eyes, had to kill many of the animals for fear that they would run amuck in the town if the zoo was bombed directly. Faithful Elephants describes how three elephants died at the Ueno Zoo in Tokyo at that time.
