Every night in the royal court, someone must tell him a story… just so he can fall asleep. Sometimes it takes just one story. Sometimes four. And sometimes… it feels like the stories might never end.

Because Akbar always has the same request: “One more story.” 😊

This time, Birbal is called upon once again. But how many stories does he end up telling? And what happens when “just one more” becomes something unexpected?

A playful Akbar–Birbal tale about curiosity, storytelling, and the joy (and challenge!) of bedtime stories that don’t want to stop.
