Stories of Siddis

Three timeless Siddi folk tales beautifully illustrate the importance of individuality, wise decision-making, and always being mindful of our actions and their impact on the people around us.
The Sweet Rat
A charmingly illustrated children’s book that teaches us the importance of our emotions and actions and their impact on others. The story follows Mr. Rat, who loses his sweet and then his temper and causes a chain reaction of negative events. Being disappointed, frustrated and angry, it’s easy to lose sight of the world around you. Join Mr Rat and those who come after him to learn how to cope with frustration and how our behaviour affects those around us. The story is inspired by the Siddi community’s rich ethnic tales in India, offering valuable lessons on conduct and encouraging us to be mindful of our actions.
