    This week I bring you a story from the Bengal region in India. Grandma and the Great Gourd is a folktale about a courageous grandma and how she makes it through a dangerous forest with the help of her clever daughter. The retelling of this timeless tale is based on Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni’s Grandma and the Great Gourd: A Bengali Folktale.
