The Blue Umbrella by Ruskin Bond
In a small Himalayan village, a young girl trades her lucky claw pendant for a dazzling umbrella that becomes the envy of everyone, especially the local shopkeeper. His growing jealousy leads to a failed attempt to steal it and the community’s disapproval. Touched by his downfall, she chooses kindness over pride, giving him the umbrella and restoring harmony as envy gives way to remorse and forgiveness.
